The Internet Explorer Story: Part 2
Internet Explorer slowly gained market share throughout 1995 and 1996, with the release of two major updates and a slew of corporate partnerships. Behind closed doors, Microsoft fought against PC makers that wanted to support IE's main competitor, Netscape Navigator.
Hosted by Corbin Davenport, guest starring Cody Toombs.
