Jerry,

I should have known to be more specific regarding my IPR comment instead of using the broad brush. I meant to use Softie as an example that it wasn't their IPR that made DOS and Windows so successful. Lots and lots of companies had competing product. And as you know, Windows came along long after Apple's OS upon which the look and feel of Windows was designed.

Using just that one example, it's not the IPR that is required. It's the product adoption.

P. S. Being a nit-picker myself, you're doing a fine job of that on your own. :)
