Mozilla Slims Down

Category: Toys, Tools, Tech

Tuesday, September 24, 2002

If you're a Windows user who's been intrigued by Mozilla's power and standards-compliance, but you've been turned off by its "bloat" (providing a browser, mail client, newsreader, HTML authoring program, etc. in one app), now you've finally got an alternative! Phoenix 0.1 has just been released. Phoenix strips out all the ancillary functionality to provide a slim, trim browser based on the world-beating Gecko rendering engine, and with a few neat new features (customizable toolbars!) to boot. A lot of the things I love about Mozilla haven't made it into Phoenix yet -- it is at version 0.1, after all -- but it's a neat example of how customizable and configurable Mozilla can be.

If that's too hard to understand... well, I'm sorry. There's only so much I can do. I'm not a therapist, and I'm not a miracle worker. I wish I could help you work through your delusional belief that I'm speaking for anyone else but myself. Honestly, I do. But in the end, that's a monkey you'll have to get off your back on your own. Sorry.
