I remember a news conference where some corporate guy, in response to a question about MS's browser market dominance, made a comment like "buy Netscape." (I think he was from Sun).
I don't think it was ever Netscape's intention to give their software away for free. They could have made a nice little profit for a while as the market leader. But then Microsoft decided to give their browser away for free, and because of their market leadership elsewhere, the freebie approach quickly became the norm.
Does anyone else remember it differently? I don't:-P
