My Opera problems range, most seem to be either sites that confirm to 
browsers, rather than standards (like securityfocus.com which has some java 
script issues) or problems with the amount I try to do at once.  It isn't 
too bad, but still frustrating.

The original install of Netscape was on Mandrake8, I recently switched back 
to RedHat 7.2 because most of the apps I have to support are developed on 
RedHat and the developers say that it "has" to be run on RedHat, of course 
we know it doesn't really _have_ to be run on RedHat, but it makes my life 
easier.  I haven't had a chance to install again on RedHat, but I hope to 
tomorrow, so I will let you know how it goes.  If I have time I am going to 
check out the mail client from the Ximian team, see how I like it.  If I 
can get a good mail client I like, I am getting rid of this OS on my 
notebook and switching back to Linux full time.
