- Option A: I remember using Netscape 1.0.
- Option B: I remember the first web page I ever saw on
Mosaic.
- Option C: I remember when Netscape 6.0 came out. It deserved
to die.
- Option D: I remember when IE was the only browser my bank
supported. Netscape really died for me that day.
- Option E: I remember when I realized I didn't need AOL to
use Internet Explorer and became free of Netscape.
Burial Services
Netscape will be officially buried on Friday, June 13, 2003, or
whenever the pink slips for AOL's Netscape Division get delivered,
whichever comes first. After this date Microsoft can no longer
guarantee that its Internet Information Server can or will allow
packets originating from Netscape users to trigger web services, nor
that Internet Explorer will remain a free download.
Netscape will be buried in a private ceremony in Redmond,
Virginia.
