Extremely slow startup time. Unfinished UI that is attempting to copy and blend together IE5 and Netscape 4. Slower than IE6 while browsing. Give me a single reason to switch from IE6 to this mozilla browser?

VA Linux to drop Linux from their name VA Linux Systems Inc. is asking shareholders to approve changing the company's name to VA Software Corp according to proxy materials filed Tuesday with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Sunnyvale, Calif., company said the name VA Software better identifies its primary business of developing software, while the VA Linux name is associated with its former Linux hardware systems and consulting businesses. In June, VA Linux announced it would shed its computer-hardware business to focus on making and supporting software. If shareholders approve the proposed name at the company's annual meeting Dec. 5, the company said it intends to change its Nasdaq trading symbol.
