Scott,

<<The parallel of what has occurred is that Microsoft has now stated that if you install that new car radio ... you void the warrenty on the car! They have decided that they are now going to forbid you to purchase that other vendor's product.>>

I believe that all the car companies state that installing aftermarket parts can void the warranty. If a new radio fries the electronics, that's the owners responsibility. MSFT hasn't and couldn't forbid anyone from purchasing and installing Novells NDS on WinNT. They have posted their reasons for not wanting to support such a configuration. If they are wrong, there's nothing to stop Novell from having a PR field day at MSFT's expense.

Regards, JB
