I find it somewhat strange that Netscape chief Clark Barksdale is claiming MSFT is a monopoly, yet when he so cleverly asked for a show of hands in the Senate hearings on people whose use the Netscape browser, a great many number of people raised their hands. What a farce.

You must have been sleeping because when they asked Mike Dell how his business runs he said he supplies what the consumers demand. Then Sen Hatch asked him to explain when a few of his aids called up wanting a system with Netscape Dells employees told them they only provide IE and can't supply Netscape.

This is the problem when a company controls 90% of the O/S market.
They control the equipment suppliers like Dell and the unknowledgeable consumer doesn't get a choice and at the end of the day the best product doesn't win so the consumer once again loses and good companies who did all the innovating gets knock out like Netscape.
Don't you think innovating companies deserve better than this?

JMHO
Mike
