Gah." This was actually a Netscape contribution, not IE's. Still, go Opera. “IE's biggest contribution was blinking text. Gah.”

Anyone who used IE 3 or their first version (I think it was 2, cuz 1 was the previous company's build) can attest to that. And Netscape did a lot of things to help us web devs explore our creative side. For the longest time, IE's biggest contribution was blinking text. Gah. But today, Netscrape is just that... crap. Moz is the king of the world now as far as I'm concerned personally, but unfortunately, to the rest of the world it is InternetExploder(tm)... I'm waiting for their next EULA to say that you can't use IE to view content that disparages Microsoft in any way. I have to use IE because that's what my clients use, and what 80% of people out there use. But for my personal surfing at home, Moz rules. If only they could figure out why my trackpoint auto scroll don't work in Mozilla though....

But they are the KINDS of programs that an end-user will add to their systems anyway to experience what the Web has to offer, although one might choose different specific apps. one more thing- all the extras, RealPlayer, Winamp, Net2Phone… these are all optional in the installation.

Netscape 4.xx is ancient by tech standards. Let's compare the newest fully supported final versions- IE 6 and Netscape 6.2.3. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. I use both everyday. And let's not forget Opera, either. I do tend to use IE a little more, but I truly feel that it's because the Web has been forced to optimize for IE due to Microsoft's strongarm tactics...

I switched to IE after N4 laid an egg in my computer, and have no desire to change...but if I don't at least try Netscape, I can't legitimately say it's inferior. I downloaded the 7 Beta; if anyone ever asks, I can give them an honest answer: it SUCKS. Meanwhile, that editor still using N4 is quite impressive considering the editor of our rinky-dink small town newspaper still uses version THREE. How he hasn't shot himself yet, I don't know. (But Peter, N3 displays just as well as N4, and isn't as much a memory hog. I mean, who needs CSS? It's not like 4 shows it any better.) Oh yeah.

There WAS a time in which Netscape was the best browser in town, albeit briefly. The few blinks of an eye before IE was released and in which NCSA was clearly not going to get anyone to work on Mosaic anymore. Netscape gave us background images, font colors, and a bunch of other stuff. Even after IE came out, I'd argue that Netscape was superior on some platforms (ok, well, the Mac). I use IE and Mozilla exclusively now, but Netscape was fine for a short while. Never forget, or the ghost of Marc Andressen may haunt you for eternity. --sean Bzzt, you're slightly wrong.

Mozilla and open source are the wave of the future. Netscape is bulky and worthless. IE does have the benefit of being faster, but is non standards compliant. You're show is great and I'd love to work there when I'm old enough. How does one become a tech TV host anyway? You rock, you scare me, but you rock.
