"Because Microsoft's clever anticompatibility engineers will ensure that Windows-based web sites, .Net services, and Office are just incompatible enough and just buggy enough in Windows 98 that you will have to subscribe to Windows XP just to get any work done". LOL! Oh... now, now. That's funny, but I kind of doubt it. "Because if you buy a new computer, you won't have a choice, because Microsoft's anticompetitive marketing folks will set up their sales incentives so that vendors who don't push XP will be punished". Ok... that I believe. But it doesn't make me want to buy a pc in the first place. No one has given me a reason to buy an X Box yet. Still waiting on that one. Is the software compatible with the Playstation? TA
