In today's FT (Monday 23rd), there is a story that AOL are engaged in
takeover talks with Netscape Communications.
Neither company is commenting at present but it appears that Sun
Microsystems, the computer company, is also involved in the talks.
The FT believes that a link-up between AOL and Netscape would be a blow to
Microsoft as AOL currently bundles IE with the software that it supplies
to its subscribers.
