<<IE is an integrated function.
Nope. Somebody in court is trying to argue that, and the judge still isn't convinced. BTW, you completely side-stepped Compaq. Compaq can put any browser they want on their 'puters. Agree or not? It's either A or B, there is no C.>>
Compaq, can, and always has been able to use any browser they wanted, they just could not slice and dice the Windows OS. You are not sticking to the facts. There was no time when MSFT hindered the selection of the browser that was to be offered. Would you give MSFT the same support if they were to remove all of the NSCP Nav icons from Navigator and replace them with links and icons from IE?
<They are not beating up on Netscape with a slightly better browser at a slightly better price. No way.>
Your right, they are crushing them with a far superior product at a MUCH better price.
<They are giving away something to all the sheep and lemming consumers who will take it which is not decisively superior. It's, at best, about the same, and even causing technical problems for a lot of them.>
What makes the consumers sheep and lemmings. I guess Ernst & Young, with thier 11,000 PhDs and MBA consultants and several thousand in technology staff are simply lemmings for choosing IE.
If you bother to go through the browsers features one by one, and examine their capabilities, you will find that IE is far superior to Nav in nearly all aspects except for pure vanilla HTML rendering. It is far more flexible as well. The following corporate valuation app and M&A analysis happens to consist of 20% IE? Could Nav do this?
