NETA's Business portal targets Netscape NETA is trying to tiptoe around Microsoft with such a directed thrust at Microsoft's main rival. But I don't think that MSFT will welcome NETA into the portal business especially if NETA has a unique advantage, i.e., tuning up your PC. If NETA's business begins to take off, I would guess that MSFT will offer a similar service on its portal, probably with a competitor. IMHO, I think Larson is taking a major gamble. He risks alienating the retail channel (high probability) and MSFT (mid-level probability). The payoff can be huge, though. This is just my opinion.
