Microsoft Explorer for Windows 3.1 -- a subjective evaluation

I just downloaded Microsoft Internet Explorer.  Don't waste your time. It 
is a real dog especially when compared to Netscpae 2.0.  Explorer is also 
a beta release but has very few features when compared to Netscape.

I admire Microsoft but wonder why they don't license Netscape and develop 
add-ons instead of trying to re-invent the wheel.  

What is really ironic is that the Microsoft Network Homepage (MSN) looks 
better in Netscape than it does in Explorer.

I will be keeping Explorer on my pc to test out my homepage and my other 
WWW projects but not for anything else.  My exploring will be via 
Netscape.
