I remember that win. Seemed super fishy at the time, with bizarre features like:
- "the World's first ever, fully featured DVD playing sidebar"
- "allowing users to send e-mails without needing to log-in to an account"
- "an AI (Artificial Intelligence) animated speech character named Phoebe"
Maybe this guy really did make a super original web browser with every bell and whistle as an independent sixteen year old. I never saw a release, so the mystery remains.
