PC World's 50 Best Tech Products of All Time

Posted by kdawson on from the time-starts-in-1977 dept.

Ant writes "PC World picks the 50 best tech products of all time. Apple holds down seven places in the list, Microsoft two, and open source software (Red Hat Linux) one. The top five, according to PC World, are: Netscape Navigator (1994), Apple II (1977), TiVo HDR110 (1999), Napster (1999), and Lotus 1-2-3 for DOS (1983).

    Asshats. If they were going to pick a browser, there is only one rational choice. Mosaic. Netscape was never the best. Mosaic was, until the project came to it's natural conclusion. When it was time for a successor IE took the crown, and Netscape folded up shop. Given the circumstance of Mosaic's success, it's the only browser to chose pre-Mozilla.
