Big, >>>> I like the product and am hoping W98 will be better/smarter than W95. I will upgrade immediately as soon as it is available! MS will raise $20 once the release hits the shelves, everyone using W95 will want to benefit from the better functionality of W98, IMO. >>>> I think this assumption also needs to be questioned. Microsoft is probably working overtime trying to figure out how to market Win98. The computer savvy will upgrade and new machines will need it for the drivers but the rank and file will need to be convinced that they need it. Even with the new integration, it doesn't have the WOW factor of Win95 vs Win3.1. So what are the included features that are going to make consumers buy it? And businesses are slow to upgrade and they will mostly go to the next version of NT. Dave
