It takes that much space to build Mozilla these days?  Yet another reason for
me to avoid even trying - I only have half a gig free.  I don't recall the
older (pre seamonkey) releases taking quite that much space to build.  Even the
first couple of builds didn't seem to take that much space (I stopped around M5
as HD space became *really* tight and I needed the CPU time for real work).

At least I can run xfmail locally for mail and run Ye Olde 100898 Mozilla for
casual browsing - or ssh to the Sun for use of real Netscape.

A *fast* reasonably functional graphical browser would be welcome, though...

And unfortunately, I don't have a DU/Tru64 license ... :/
