RE:"What is at issue is that MS sold the same program for an allocated $50, that Borland wanted to charge $495 for, and yes I know they [belatedly] lowered the price." I remember it the other way around. Quatro Pro Windows ended up selling for $50 and Excel for a few hundred. This lasted for about a year as Borland went under. I recall MS pulled some tricks on Borland...something to to do incompatibility between formats. Nothing new for MS. QPW finally ended up at Corel...still there but obscure. Jim
