Most of the time I stay out of the Nicoll War, but this statement seems ludicrous. "But the real rebel against the tyranny that says PC owners must always upgrade is the Internet itself. Very little web content will require PC owners to buy new hardware; every new website will prolong the life of existing hardware. Websites depend on attracting as many visitors as they can. Nobody would want to limit the appeal of their sites by designing them to work properly only on the fastest PCs." The web, with broadband coming, will be the greatest incentive to upgrade that the home computing industry has ever seen. Both MSFT and SUNW will benefit greatly from the proliferation of the web and its continued acceptance by the general public. PC's rule the front end and Unix rules the backend. Oranges and apples are both good. Peace and Love, jb
