   That's a sore subject with me!  When I signed up with a company that had   
   dial-up internet, I had to buy netscape to connect with them.  Now the version   
   I bought wasn't in, they said it'd be in in a week or so.  It came in, I picked   
   it up and he said that now, it's kinda obsolete, because Internet Explorer   
   could be downloaded for free with a dialer that made netscape useless.  Now he   
   didn't refund my money I forked out on Netscape, didn't offer to give me a copy   
   of Explorer for free, etc. A week later, Netscape announced it was now   
   completely free!  About a year later, that company was bought out by another   
   company, and shortly afterwards it went out of business completely.
