Web narcotic.
Pretty.
Clunky. (I'd gracefully acknowledge that this is a preview release, and not final code, but my experience is that this rarely matters with browser speed.)
A note to browser developers worldwide: if you want my own personal buy-in, then the fuking browser better let me scroll up a page with Shift+Spacebar. When IE came out with this, it single-featuredly made me switch from Netscape. This is despite the fact that I had been a loud-mouthed Netscape lover for years.
Netscape 7 doesn't have Shift+Spacebar.
Further, they've introduced tabbed browsing ala Opera, yet fail to allow you to navigate those tabs with the keyboard apart from closing them with Ctrl+W. Plus, new tabs don't show up in the Window pulldown. Hilarious. (This is something that may get fixed in the final release of 7.0.)
IE: welcome home to the land of good taste.
Netscape, you will soon be uninstalled, along with the three shortcuts you placed on the top level of my start menu and the four shortcuts you helpfully crammed onto my Quicklaunch toolbar.

For the record, uninstalling Netscape 7 left me with all three quicklaunch shortcuts, all four top-of-the-start-menu shortcuts, plus an entire program folder of icons for the ultra-crappy RealPlayer in the start menu, another RealPlayer shortcut in the 'Accessories' program group, as well as an AOL shortcut on the desktop.
Crap.
I'm keeping track, because I love you.

Netscape sux, it always did. They'll probably go to version 16 until they'll even be equal to IE or Opera.
