> IE was legitimately better than Netscape for a while

That's right. IE was free. Netscape was not. I think this is a point a lot of people miss.

It was free too pretty soon after IE reached OK though if I remember rightly.

Netscape did crash far too often though in that time period and was probably better even beyond all the made for IE websites.

I... actually didn't know that Netscape was a bought product until just now.
