[rescue] Anyone running Netscape 7 browser on their SPARCs?

[Curtis H. Wilbar Jr.]

I've run it (and do so still periodically) on a SS20 with 196M RAM
and originally an HS180, now a dual SM71.  Runs about the same speed
on the HS180 and dual SM71.

Other things are faster with the dual SM71 (compiles with make -j2 for
instance) than with the HS180.
