AOL Pulls Plug on Netscape Web Browser

AOL has pulled the plug on Netscape and no one really noticed. Sad to see them go out this way after so many years. Thanks to [H] forum member RoBo for the link.

Netscape Navigator, the world's first commercial Web browser and the launch pad of the Internet boom, will be pulled off life support Feb. 1 after a 13-year run. Its current caretakers, Time Warner Inc.'s AOL, decided to kill further development and technical support to focus on growing the company as an advertising business.
