Good approach! In my arguments, I say that MSFT doesn't make the best software, they make the second best! I give 10 points to the best, and 5 points to the second best. Next I make a list of the software available and it goes like this: UNIX op sys - 10 : MSFT op sys - 5 LOTUS - 10 : MSFT - 5 BORLAND - 10 : MSFT - 5 COREL - 10 : MSFT - 5 etc. The totals just based on the above 4 are: UNIX - 10 LOTUS - 10 BORLAND - 10 COREL - 10 MSFT - 20 (4x5) For me it isn't that MSFT is necessarily the best all of the time, the lead changes with each new release, but MSFT is EVERYWHERE and their packages seem to integrate to 'their' operating system pretty well. Does this make any sense? Ken
