Heh.  Reminiscent of "All mail clients suck, this one just sucks less." :-)

Mozilla has come a long way in the last few years and it is undoubtedly
one of the best web browsers around - IMHO miles better than Microsoft's
IE in most areas.  It's speed (or lack thereof) is pretty atrocious,
though, but I don't think anyone has any plans on improving it since CPU
speeds and memory capacities just keep growing.

And OpenOffice can only get better from where it is now.  (-:  The
spreadsheet needs to be fixed up a bit, it's nowhere near Excel.
