Yes, most of their customers are Windows users.

I think the major reason AOL aquired Netscape is because they needed
something to bargain with. If AOL has it's own browser it "could" use,
then they can get a better deal out of Microsoft. Maybe down the road
AOL will threaten Microsoft with a Mozilla based AOL (MozillAOL? hehe)
Who knows?
