<< If they have to remove their explorer, again so what. They make Windows compatible systems,and the die is cast. That will not hurt them in the slightest. Once again a bump in the road. >> Bill Gates obviously understands the importance of tightly integrating the network and the OS. He's very late in the game though. Sun Microsystems has preached "the network is the computer" for decades. Tightly integrating the OS and the network is VERY important. The network is quickly becoming all that matters for the average user. If Microsoft builds an OS that doesn't allow the user to access the web, and if applications are written in a platform independent language, then where does Microsoft fit into the picture? Mike
