>>>So was implementation of Windows on the Intel PC innovative?<<<

I didnt want to continue this thread but I could not resist this one.
The fact that Bill G could sell us an *inferior* OS and get away with it shows that he is a genius business man/marketer. Mac/OS, NextStep, Unix etc.. are all known to be technically superior to Windows 3.X/9X. However, Bill G was a better businessman than Steve Jobs et al. Thus we are stuck with Windows today.

My prediction is that MSFT has begun a slow decline, due to the Internet, Java, Linux and Palm.
The fate of IBM awaits them.
