No, it isn't just a jacket around FF. It is a rewrite, done by a dedicated in-house set of developpers.

Those show without any problem, even in Netscape 8. I assume they would show just the same, without errors in Netscape Navigator 9.
In fact Netscape Navigator 9 apparently doesn't use the rendering engine of MSIE anymore, but actually uses MSIE itself to display MSIE-only pages. Which should mean that even more MSIE-only sites (all?) would be supported, including ActiveX, etc....

IIRC AOL is the owner yes, but that doesn't mean anything negative at all...

PS: Netscape is, unlike FF, always properly reconized as the default browser. You wont have any problems clicking on links and MSIE opening instead...
