Most of us who paid for the browsers (I paid for three or four), did so not because we had to (it was actually inconvenient to use the 'released' versions, as they were soon out of date), but because it was the right thing to do, and because we wanted Netscape to have the income.

Given that, it is disappointing to hear all of the weak-kneed or unethical things Netscape was up to at the same time MSFT was persecuting them. We had some faith in the management that was misplaced. They turned out to be standard suits, with no vision.
