Do they even have a browser presence anymore? I don't have any of the numbers (and nor do I feel like tracking any down), but I would assume they are somewhere behind Opera in the market penetration segment.
I would suspect that there are probably more people still using Netscape 4 than there are users of current versions of Navigator. Last time I saw any stats, around 2000-2001 or so, the breakdown was along the lines of NS: 15%, IE: the rest.
I like to imagine that the imagine that the current Netscape development process is similar to that old Dilbert strip - "Sure boss, I can remove the URLs from all our webpages. I'll just replace them with Uniform Resource Locators - but it will take six months."
