Yup, that was the one, thanks. I'm a bit torn as to the work environment: On the one hand, I'd hate to be a cubicle jockey for a large corporation. On the other, the engineers at netscape seemed to be buoyed by being surrounded by many capable nerds. It's that dichotomy that makes me, on the one hand, want to work for Google, and fear doing so on the other.
That documentry also reaffirmed my commitment to not do pure sitting-at-desk software development. Because my god netscape looked like a horrible place to be, no matter how many smart people you had around you. (These days facebook looks similar, but worse not even cubicles for privacy)
