Netscape Finally Put Down
Netscape Finally Put Down
Quote:
Stony Stevenson writes to point out that Netscape has finally reached end of line with the release of version 9.0.0.6. A pop-up will offer users the choice of switching to Firefox, Flock, or remaining with the dead browser, but no new updates will be released.
"Nearly 14 years after the once mighty browser made its first desktop appearance as Mosaic Netscape 0.9, its disappearance comes as little surprise. Although Netscape accounted for more than 80 per cent of the browser market in 1995, the arrival of Microsoft's Internet Explorer in the same year brought stiff competition and surpassed Netscape within three years."
Wow… I remember the days when Netscape was the big boy on the block. Kinda sad really.

I never liked Netscape... but, if you want to "use it", then go with Mozilla.
