Well, I've done it

I've finally switched from Netscape to IE. Netscape was crashing on every other site, plus my email started behaving erratically, so I felt it was time to make the change and join the other 99% of the internet world .

That's one of the things Microsoft did really well at. IE is free, and it's the best. It's not often you see that...

Besides, the big worry was that if the Allies didn't get nuclear fission working soon then the Germans would beat them to it. Given the chance between our blowing up the world and the enemy blowing up the world, it was obvious what to do.
That is, on reflection, not a happy sentence.

Yeah I loved Netscape too... it had been my primary browser for over 5 years, but clearly Microsoft has won the browser wars and I was going to IE for most sites anyway. It was just a matter of then importing all my mail.
