Netscape had/has a problem. The browser is a prime example of a wonderful hack. The PROBLEM with wonderful hacks is this. When someone else needs to work on them, or they need massive extention, it's hard for anyone to work on it (even the original author). This is where good design, documentaion (including COMMENTS in the code) and the like really helps. It's called shooting yourself in the foot
Want to know what else is pathetic? I work for them (But NOT in.com). We were told NOT to watch the broadcast, because it would bring down our internal network. We had to watch it on TV!
