Of course, if you want to run Java apps, then you are better off going
with the Linux version.
From the README file in the Netscape distribution:
----- Begin -----
Java Applet Support:
Java Applet support is available for SunOS 4.1, Solaris 2.3,
Solaris 2.4, HPUX, IRIX and Linux and OSF1.
----- End -----
No mention of BSD there.
