Margie- For eight years the Wall Street Journal was condemming Clinton as morally repugnant but they didn't dare make one peep about how the economy was being run as all their publications were fat with juicy ads. Now six months into their boy's presidency they're about as thick as my school's paper and they yell bloody murder, fix this, change that.

XP isn't going to do a darn thing for the tech industry. Anyone betting otherwise is asking for disappointment. The economy is going through the ringer and it will be quite a while before anything comes out the other end.

That said. Sit back, relax and let the courts unravel Microsoft's monopoly. For a few days it was refreshing to see the AOL deals for screen space until Microsoft squelched them. When the final decree is in effect there will be no more squelching and the box makers will be able to use creativity to make more sales than the other guy.

The builder who puts up a supermarket doesn't get to tell their customer what to stock on the shelves. In a while neither will Microsoft.
