WWW BROWSER STATISTICS
According to a study of how more than 72,000 Internet users
browsed the World Wide Web in January 1995, 77% reached the
Web via Netscape Navigator, 14% via NCSA Mosaic, and the
remaining 6% via Spyglass Mosaic, Netcom Netcruiser, IBM
WebExplorer, or one of the other browsers. Netscape CEO
Jim Clark boasts: "The network users have spoken and we've
won the war," but a skeptical executive at Microsoft
counters: "It's interesting to talk about market share when
you're giving away the software." The Netscape business
plan is to give away so many copies of its "client" software
for individual users that there will be an increasing demand
for companies operating Web sites to purchase Netscape
"server" software.
