Frank, I'd like to see MSFT do more in the B2B space. They are laggards here, actually purchasing software from ALLR for web development. It is difficult to set up semi-custom e-commerce solutions. The main alternative for each of the millions of business web sites is to entrust their e-commerce development to the kids who work for local ISPs. The big ISPs only offer out-of-the-box solutions where you have to have the web site hosted there as well. The millions of web sites who already have an ISP and want to develop a good e-commerce have to pay through the nose for it (and hope that the "kids" at the ISP don't screw up), or accept very rudimentary off-the-shelf solutions. They have dragged their feet on this. Does anyone know if MSFT has any good B2B initiatives in the works? If they do, it could bode well for the stock. INTCfan
