Netscape released a preview of its new Firefox-based browser. As expected, it is Firefox’s speed with an ugly theme and Netscape network stuff caked on.
One interesting addition is the ability to switch rendering engines between Mozilla’s Gecko and Microsoft’s Trident (to see what the page looks like in IE). The Netscape preview also supports site-specific settings.
The preview is only available to registered testers and is Windows-only at the moment. No word on a release date or a Mac version. But from what I’ve seen, that’s not a big loss.

If there is a Mac version, it would be great if it could switch between Gecko & WebKit rendering.
