Eric, -- IE4 for Solaris first impressions,

I noticed you say Solaris instead of Unix. I think it's good MS is supporting Solaris but I would like to see them also support SGI and Linux. I don't think they should say they support Unix until they support at least several versions like NSCP. I don't know much about Unix but would it be possible to do an easy port of IE to the SGI and Linux platforms? Also wouldn't it be smart of MS to release the source code of their Unix IE? I would think it would proliferate through the Unix world and give NSCP good competition there. Sure they and others want to believe Unix is just going to die but that is not going to happen anytime soon. In your opinion would there be anything negative if MS released the Unix source code?
