``In January 1998, Netscape hit one of its blackest periods -- the first round of layoffs… At this point, I strongly believed that Netscape was no longer capable of shipping products. Netscape's engineering department had lost the single-minded focus we once had, on shipping something useful and doing it fast. That was no longer happening. Netscape was shipping garbage, and shipping it late.'' - Jamie Zawinski, Former engineer, Netscape.
