Michael; The bundling is the rigged deck that Corel and others face. In addition microsoft makes it hard on developers with undoc calls which allow extra ease of operation for the MS product. True all the developers ferret them out, but there is a cost to this in time and bugs. I think the bundling should stop at the OS level, as it gives MS too much power to discriminate against others price wise. MS has killed many products this way and the US dept of Justice should act and prohibit bundling and pre-loading except at the same fee for all. Bill
