I actually had that installed and used it a few times back in 1997. I think Larry had his cat whip up a browser just to prove Barksdale and Andreessen wrong. PowerBrowser, FTW!

Netscape seemed cooler for reasons I don't recall. Then came their huge IPO and all the cool stuff Netscape did as a company to demonstrate the web. Remember their web page that let you enter a message in a form and it would display your message on a scrolling LED sign somewhere at Netscape headquarters and show it to you with a web cam? Much better than the "blink" tag. I still used Netscape up 'till version 7.something until switching to Firefox when it became unbearable to use with AOL's foulups. RIP Netscape, old pal.

This was the only popularly accessible alternative to AOL or Prodigy at that time, if I remember correctly.
