1993 – Steve Ballmer, Gates’s second-in-command, had discovered on a sales trip that most of his big corporate customers were complaining that Windows didn’t have a “TCP/IP stack” – ie, a way of connecting to the internet. Ballmer had never heard of TCP/IP. “I don’t know what it is,” he shouted at subordinates on his return to Seattle. “I don’t want to know what it is. But my customers are screaming about it. Make the pain go away.”
Netscape formed the basis for today’s Firefox, which sims near the top of current browsers among several speed tests. To be fair, the speed differences among all the major browsers is negligible.
But it’s funny that Internet Explorer 11 is currently the slowest browser.
