Ray,

That's what I said, $10-15 for packaging and distribution. And, agreed, Microsoft saves costs though OEM relationships, but, OEMs pay less because of their volume agreements.

Either way, my point is really about relative profitability OS versus application package like Office 97. The point being that Office is by and far more profitable. Do you disagree? -N
