Ha ha, I think Netscape was later... To me, it seems like we're late in this phase:
I actually e-mailed Marc Andreessen once when I was an early-career programmer and having trouble getting NCSA Mosaic to compile. I never heard back from him, but I did eventually get it to compile... ; -)
Remember when it was an optional $75 product and there wasn't a Microsoft Version yet?
Yep, and you also had to shell out another $40 or $50 for 3rd party software and muck around in autoexec.bat and config.ini just to get the stupid machine connected to the network.
