HP continues slide...
This just proves what my Dell rep told me the other day: "HP is dying and dying fast". Of course, I look at Dell with some suspicions because they support Green Screen Linux on their servers, but this move by HP is just awful. If uneducated users decide to choose Netscape instead of IE, their entire web browsing eXPerience will be awful. There will be no ability to run the tools that make the Internet useful and dynamic, mainly ActiveX and ASP.NET. Netscape is a relic, a dinosaur. This is like asking me if I want to buy either a brand new Mercedes or an old beatup Gremlin. I have mandated that nobody here will be allowed to print on HP printers anymore.
