>>>The bundling of the browser and the OS has not started yet (except for som forms of NT, which is a brand new OS just starting ot get acceptance).<<<

What do you mean by this? IE came with Windows 95 (On my upgrade disc), and came with (and seemingly had to be installed for) some DLLs to fix win95 tcp/ip security I recently installed (after, I had to switch my default browser back again.)

I have had NT since 1993, but I guess the point is I got the browser with my OS discs, and it was not just installed in the program menu where I could ignore it but stares me in the face from the desktop, from an icon that says 'The Internet', as though there was no alternative for getting on the Internet.

Yet only an 8% increase in 8 months, against Netscape, for which I paid.
