        mosaic has been described as "the killer application of the
        1990s" because it was the first program to provide a slick
        multimedia graphical user interface to the internet's
        burgeoning wealth of distributed information services
        formerly mostly limited to ftp and gopher at a time when
        access to the internet was expanding rapidly outside its
        previous domain of academia and large industrial research
        institutions.
     
        ncsa mosaic was originally designed and programmed for the x
        window system by marc andreessen and eric bina at ncsa.
        version 1.0 was released in april 1993, followed by two
        maintenance releases during summer 1993.  version 2.0 was
        released in december 1993, along with version 1.0 releases for
        both the apple macintosh and microsoft windows.  an
        acorn archimedes port is underway may 1994.
     
        marc andreessen, who created the ncsa mosaic research
        prototype as an undergraduate student at the university of
        illinois left to start mosaic communications corporation
        along with five other former students and staff of the
        university who were instrumental in ncsa mosaic's design and
        development.
