In this paper we explore some of the features of large N supersymmetric and nonsupersymmetric gauge theories using Maldacena's duality conjectures. We shall show that the resulting strong coupling behavior of the gauge theories is consistent with our qualitative expectations of these theories. Some of these consistency checks are highly nontrivial and give additional evidence for the validity of the proposed dualities.

Wilson loops on the Coulomb branch of $N=4$ super-Yang-Mills
Holographic minimal-surface calculation maps the Gross-Ooguri phase transition for circular Wilson loops on the Coulomb branch and indicates tree-level exactness for the straight line.
