You may have, but that's not why people who used and were fans of Netscape switched to IE voluntarily. While IE was adding CSS support and other consumer friendly features, Netscape was more interested in Communicator, the enterprise suite.

I don't remember fans of netscape switching to IE, though I do remember AOL buying netscape and making a mess of it with netscape 4 development stopped and netscape 5 abandoned.

AOL buying Netscape happened much later, after the war was over.

You're probably right, by the time AOL bought netscape it was a background news to me as I had moved from netscape for a while.

Ah the Mariner debacle.
