If it is true that Netscape is not continuing development of BSDI 
Netscape servers, then they have already lost to Microsoft.  The one 
thing that saves them in this market place is multi-platform support.

Microsoft will never support another operating system.

(I actually think that Netscape consistently produces far superior 
software to Microsoft, but most of the computing world is too stupid to 
understand this and so they spend their green votes on MicroBorg.)
