<What is it selling with Internet Explorer though?> Windows 95, Windows NTW, and Windows NTS. <Giving away non-innovative software for free is not exactly a paradigm shift (a high-brow way of saying "out with the old, in with the new").> IE 4 is by far the most innovative browser in existence. Compare IE4 to Communicator 4 feature to feature. There is no comparison. The vast majority of trade rags agree. <Do you honestly believe the goal of IE freeware is to enhance Windows and not to capture the web browser market?> Is there something wrong with capturing the web browser market. Why did NSCP give away email clients, or browsers? I suppose they had a more benevolent reason than MSFT? Why is Sun giving away the Java SDKs?
