AOL kills Netscape
Netscape is finally dead, gone and never to return. They produced some really cool stuff and some junk. Mozilla still exists and interesting spinoff projects have appeared (like Camino for Mac OS X or Firebird for Windows). Microsoft wheeled and dealed to get back with AOL and that was the indicator that this would eventually happen. Good luck to the folks who need to find jobs now.
