Hi, cAPSLOCK and all. Thanks for the responses. There is no merit in winning the 'techical competency test' and 'lose money'. I always reminded the 'MSFT-threat(sp?)' that they should be thankful to SUNW becasue of the 'semiconductor advances in the last 10+ years' were made possible by 'REAL WORK-station' from SUNW and the like. Even today, I'm not aware of any major semidconductor company doing chip design(simulation, layout, synthesis) on PC. PC is more prevalent in 'board' design tools or FPGA design. Anyway, the point I'm trying to make out of this "OS/IE integration" thing is: Just because one is monopoly and rich and powerful, it has no right to redefine the OS. (In msft, I'm not sure, these guys are scary, maybe they can define what is OS as they like).
