Netscape is now Mozilla..

What are they saying here?!

Netscape claims to be the No. 2 browser company–after Microsoft–but sources close to the company say that Firefox is gaining “really fast.”

According to Ben Goodger, Netscape has laid off their entire browser department.

    And not recently either, about 18 months ago… in July of 2003. Recall the “AOL Lays off 50 engineers” news from July 15, 2003. Netscape is now a shell of its former self, with the new browser prototype being a hacked up Firefox produced by a Canadian contracting company.

    My E-Mail to netsacpe
    Hi Netscape,

    I called 866-541-8233 to disconnect my service and I thought I would have a very pleasant experience like I’ve have had with other utilities when I notified them I wanted to disconnect

    Your charging me a disconnect fee. YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING.
    My other utilities do not charge a disconnect fee.

    You block popups from other sites but you annoy people with your own popup.

    E-Mail. When I compose a message and I hit enter it will double space.
    NO word processor double spaces when you hit enter.

    I have sent several comments to you but you did not have the courtesy to acknowledge my E- Mails

    Therefore I will tell every one I know about the wonderful experience I’ve had with
    Netscape

    Before you screwed every thing up with Netscape 8.1. The old Netscape 7.1 worked fine.
    I could save my urls by going into Netscape file and save the folder “Bookmarks” to disk.
    I had local control.

    I guess you won’t acknowledge this letter either. I’ll look for a blog.

    After going thru all this, I still have to call on the 20th to disconnect.
    All other utilities will accept a future disconnect date.

    Bill Hoey
