What does MSFT plan to gain by offering free internet access? The answer is simple...the crushing of AOL....Let's see...free isp means MSN will go bust, since no money will be coming in...but then AOL would have to offer free access too...forcing AOL to go bust...but wait...Billy Boy still has his software business! Once AOL and MSN are dead, MSFT uses all it's power and $$$ from Windows...to start another ISP...in fact..it will be the ONLY isp still in existence, since all others had to go bust from having no income...Once MSFT is all alone in the isp biz...forget "FREE" isps....MSFT will charge about $99 a month if you want "Internet 2002" the ONLY game in town! HAHAHA and you thought The Blair Witch was scary??
