There is an update at:
http://www.techweb.com/wire/finance/story/INV19981122S0002
For those that just want the details: It looks like it's a merger not an
acquisition. From the bit I read, Netscape would become part of AOL. Sun
is also talking to AOL:
"Also involved is Sun Microsystems,
which is talking to AOL about
development and a marketing
agreement involving e-commerce
and new Internet devices."
My interpretation: Netscape continues producing Mozilla, AOL brands it
with their name. Microsoft loses more customers. I don't see Sun taking
over the development of Mozilla.
Am I wrong?
Blair.
