Netscape: Dead?

[Frank]

Did Microsoft kill another one? Is Netscape going to the Big Pearly Computer in the Sky? Could we get that lucky?

Time to kill this one I suppose. The link is dead :D

There's a line in there about people not upgrading from NN4.7. I can understand why. N6+ was a serious case of bloatware and is nowhere near as fast or efficient as IE or even Opera. You want speed go for Opera. Want simplicity and decent integration into yr desktop, then IE's the biz.

Mozilla on the other hand is the tech below N6+, and I still haven't made my mind up about that one.

Still it would be more than a blessing to kill of NN4+ as it's a real problem area when designing web sites, due to it's methology of getting page elements.

My 2c worth
