Isn't Mozilla 1.7 still in Beta? Why would AOL be building software based on something still in Beta?
Isn't that the same thing as saying "Why would anyone use Windows". Yet, there it is, on tens of millions of home and corporate desktops, worldwide.

Actually, it was more commentary on modern software in general. So much of it seems to be "beta quality" that the "beta" term seems to have little meaning, any more. Businesses and home users have gotten so used to garbage code, that practically ANYTHING is acceptabel, whether it has the "beta" label or is a "final release".
