That was the wrong move to miss treat Microsoft

Microsoft only got that antitrust suit because they spent $0 in lobbying. Now the spend millions after the politicians sent them that message.

"What Google, Facebook And Apple Can Learn From Microsoft’s 1998 Antitrust Fight" that they can get away with it no problem

What the public can learn from Microsoft's 1998 Antitrust fight.

We need to take down Facebook

I see the government as being part of the market and the referee as long as these two don't interact unfairly.

So, how about apple mac safari or Android google search, Map and ext, AT&T, CNBC , TIME Warner this so Ironic

That’s why I use Linux

2'53: " but i eat success might not have been purely from the popularity of windows". ANYONE COULD TELL ME WHAT "I EAT SUCCESS" MEANS?

Linux distro from Microsoft is on the way

Anti trust amazon,disney,google,att etc

Holy s*it that Starbucks number one customer right there. lady hasn't slept for years

Still better than Chrome.

This is old news

Edge is actually pretty good. It downloads Chrome much faster than IE ever did.

Shouldn't they look into the banks first? Seems like any business called to big to fail should be broken up as fast as possible. Tech companies seem like a small problem in comparison.

Yep, microsoft almost have no competitor. How abt google? Haha

Even back in 1995, explorer was known as the shittiest browser. I used netscape up until firefox came out.

Windows surfce rt. Cant download any othet browser and these are tablets

I preferred Novell.

Use this comment as the "Steve Ballmer is an idiot" button.

Does anyone know, could Bill Gates have become the first trillionaire? It seems like he was on track during release of original xbox and xbox 360

Government wanted to take action on a company because they were giving free product😆lol how evil

Anti trust is always used to help other companies who offer a worser product, it is never used to help the consumers.

Surely CNBC has better stock footage than this lol

This is great

Just use Linux

Netscape Navigator for LIFE!!!

Has Microsoft become complicit in anti-competitive conduct?

I still use microsoft edge its great believe it or not :)

What does any of this mean. Usually good content from CNBC but this was a total word salad.

Who is this woman giving commentary? She looks like she hasn't slept since the '80's...

NOPE! Netscape Navigator was FREE!

does the professor lady look like a junkie to anyone ?

why was everyone afraid of a web browser in a an operating system in those days?

That’s crazy My Grandmother got the same computer still works 🙌🏾

Like what have long time

The Mozilla project had begun before the Microsoft settlement (when Netscape made its abandoned Navigator 5 project open-source), but the first stable release of the Mozilla Suite happened in 2002, and Firefox would not be released until 2004 (after briefly being known, during its beta and alpha periods, under the names Firebird and Phoenix, before having to change those names because of trademark conflicts; there was also a Firefox Software at the time, but that company was okay with Mozilla releasing a browser under that name).

An analogy I often think about is Microsoft is selling cars, the OS is a car. If people buy a car, it's already complete with seats, steering wheel, engine, chassis, etc. Netscape is selling steering wheels. and Netscape wanted Microsoft to stop bundling the steering wheel to their car, so people would buy the steering wheel as an add-on from Netscape, Microsoft or others. However, steering wheels shouldn't be optional and should be part of the finished product. A computer with internet connection is a form of communication which should be a basic human right, so no additional purchase should be made to access the internet. My two cents.

I read Antichrist

It didn't "almost" become the default browser, it was. Obviously competing with free is quite difficult. But IE had good design as well. Netscape was bloated. IE was considerably simpler. It's too bad they threw it away by bloating it up with IE 7 - if they had just added a few little things and updated security, along with web standards, it would still be great.

So if there's one good thing about it all...Microsoft made all web browsers free for everyone forever. Wow.

Almost

I don't even understand some of the videos this channel makes...

That lady is very creepy, internet explorer is only used to download chrome in a new pc
