Re:Netscape... AOL still owns that, right? (Score 1)

That's it in a nutshell. As long as AOL is involved, there will be an over-supply of idiot managers who salivate at the prospect of taking an otherwise perfectly fine product and wrecking it.

It's deeply imbeded into their corporate culture.

(used to have a netscape.net free email account, until AOL got their hands on it and thoroughly ruined it.)
