    but they did not steal source code for that market leader aka Nestcape? They had a faithful complete rewrite in IE4 (before it was actually licensed) and this new browser was better than NS4. I was a hardcode Netscape user since 1996 but I switched to MSFT because its a better browser.

    From a company that made a policy of taking the current market leader and emulating it, giving it away free or cheap until they owned the market. Classic! :lol

    Xoggoth thats childplay.

    I built an inter-galactic time machine phaser that seconds as a pseudo mind persuader. It can be used in any environment from the pleasant oxygen/nitrogen bio-sphere of planet xarg to the hospitable environment of the Caro solar complex. Guess what I built it from?..A Breville toastie maker..

    That's nothing. I made myself a six hub networked server RAID thingy with built in UXML ASB stuff whatsits-o-flip from my old car radio in an afternoon. It can hack into the Pentagon and MI5 simultaneously and do all sorts of wonderful hacky things with payloads and stuff, and J2EE#.net probably.
