DaveNet: Forgive Her.

The Boston Globe proposes that Netscape reform itself around the Linux operating system.

I pretty much agree. In August 1995 I said Netscape needed to combine with a popular operating system. Today I'd go with the Globe and recommend Linux. It's too late to do a deal with Apple, they already have a Microsoft deal.

News.com: Is Netscape for sale?

They're selling performance!

With a scripting environment that runs on the fastest G3s (as a native PowerPC app)

and the fastest Pentium IIs, we're in a unique position to evaluate the claim. Could we get an independent group together to build and run some benchmarks? We'd be happy to host a mail list and link websites together. This would have the side-benefit of spotting performance bottlenecks in Frontier, which would help us make it faster.

TechWeb: Be is alive and kicking.
