Hi Win- XP is another pretty face with Win2000 underneath. I'm using it but wasn't able to sell my preview copy on eBay so I'm in for the duration of the 180 day evaluation.

I know it's hard to work up any Microsoft outrage anymore. That's part of the strategy of keeping users sullen but pacified. But one more turn wouldn't be bad. It would be nice if the end result will be to erect a barrier between Microsoft OS and all other products. They don't need to split the company to do it. Just make Microsoft sell the OS without any strings attached. It was interesting to see the deals AOL was making before Microsoft reclaimed things by declaring "eminent domain".

I think the first order of business will be freeze XP introduction.
