AOL was suppose to switch from IE to Netscape when they got them instead they signed another agreement with MS.
AOL will never get out of the contract with IE. They'll keep resigning. Then they go sue and say that they are a monoply cause they don't allow another companies browser to come with Windows when you first get it. Correct me if I am wrong but back in ME it came with Netscape as well as IE. Also AOL came on the system regardless of who you got your system from.
AOL just wants something to bitch about and wants a away to get their money they are losing from ppl switching from their bull shit network to a REAL ISP.
Someone needs to make a system like AOL build it off something different then IE---if they wanna provide a difference----then charge less...
would be a great start up and a great way to compete with AOL.
But then again isnt that what Netscape Internet Service is for? a stripped down service of AOL thats cheaper? I'm actually suprised people arent moving to Netscape's service from AOL. But Netscape only bills Credit Card...AOL doesn't.
yah they have a lot of companies they own under the AOL name: ICQ, Netscape, CompuService (started in Columbus, Ohio), MapQuest, AIM, AOL for Broadband, AOL International, AOL Latino, AOL Local, AOL Music, and Moviefone.
thats all of the companies that AOL owns under there name.
