I feel the same way about IE5 Mac. It was great when it came out first 
on the classic Mac OS because of its CSS/DOM support, but even then it 
was slow and was almost always the culprit when I had a system crash. 
Now in OSX it is slow, cranky, has no tabs, quits, hangs but that page 
holder feature is kind of cool, you know? I stuck HTML defs and CSS 
properties pages from W3C in there for a reference. I miss that.


I feel better now too.
