Why do people keep on crying about Netscape.  Netscape is also a 
predatory company out for money, market share, and willing to slander the 
competition and squeeze out other products (i.e. Mosaic and Lynx by 
introducing non-standard HTML tags) in its quest for dominance.

If Microsoft ends up winning the browser war, it's because Netscape 
couldn't play the game as well as it thought it could.
