I was actually at Netscape during that time period. I remember the credit card
idea being kicked around quite a lot, but it got shot down every time. I guess
things are quite a bit different now that AOL is running the show. Personally,
I don't think the slightly longer no-interest period is worth the irritation of
the barrage of AOL CDs that you will inevitably get by signing up.
