   In the spirit of insanely unstable software, Netscape Communicator 4.0b2
is now available in the outland locker. To run:
   add outland
   netscape-beta			# For Communicator

   Netscape Communicator 4.0 is, of course, Netscape's latest, greatest
attempt to eat processor cycles, memory, and display their remarkable lack
of any software engineering.  Other than that, it has a spiffier UI, is
better integrated, supports CSS1 (Cascading Style Sheets), and lots of
other features.  For more information, try the release notes:
   http://home.netscape.com/eng/mozilla/4.0/relnotes/unix-4.0b2.html

   Netscape Communicator Preview Release 2 is installed for Linux, NetBSD,
Irix, Solaris, HPUX, and SunOS.  Plugin directories are supported
as before, but of course there aren't any plugins for UNIX.

   Enjoy!
