Mosaic.... That thing Microsoft stole and made into IE.
No, they bought Spyglass and renamed it
The thing I read showed Mosaic too. I'll see if I can dig it up and I'll give a link. I knew about spyglass but there was more than them involved when I checked.
The following (for what it's worth) is clipped directly from the Help/About box for IE v6:
Based on NCSA Mosaic. NCSA Mosaic(TM); was developed at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Distributed under a licensing agreement with Spyglass, Inc.
Microsoft may have stolen it, but at least they acknowledge the theft. Cheers, Gordon Keehn
Aha! Maybe that was where I got it from. Heh, it's funny how they can admit to being theives and thugs, and giving people a crap OS like 95, which makes them rich, then when 98 comes out, same thing. Man, what the hell, lol. This proves you can poo in a box, make it look pretty, and sell it and become rich.
