Chaz, >>One thing puts them on the same footing vis-a-vis OS info, APIs, and so on - be a separate apps development company like everybody else. If the OS section after the breakup were motivated to distribute core information in a way it is not now, and provide development tools and help in a more industry-responsive way, and along with that we had a more level playing field at the retail level so that the financial rewards of developing new software came back, we could see a general acceleration in applications development everywhere.. But Microsoft is giving the consumers what they want, the last thing their business model needs is other people developing apps at random; it would upset the "incrementalism" that we all love so much! No, it is much better that I learn to pay $50 to kids hanging around CompUSA for installing an $80 OS. Seems like paying $130 for a Windows95 upgrade is the real Cost of Ownership nowadays. Manuals extra of course. Cheers, Norm
