So, Microsoft claims that AOL thought that IE was better than Navigator?

Also note the threat that Bill made to Steve Case about the difficulty of reaching AOL.

I talked to him this afternoon. He said they are on a path to close with Netscape before the end of the month. I told him I wanted to convince him to pay a visit and really talk about our goals. I said I wasn't going to be able to put AOL in the Windows box except in the sense that with a few strings typed in the user would be able to connect to AOL.

He said he views us technically as behind Netscape but credible enough to do a very good job.....
