Gerald, >>I'd love to see one of these Box-maker CEO's stand up to Microsoft and call their bluff: >> "You want to yank our windows license? Fine. Do it. We'll bundle Linux." Better yet, offer to sell a Windows/Linux box at a discount from a Windows only box. Making Linux the default system of course and since it looks like Linux will soon include Netscape integrated in it; that would make Netscape the default browser. Let the market decide, right? Didn't Linux outsell NT last year? If so, then why can I buy a new PC with NT but not Linux? Maybe people who buy sub $1000 PC's to web-surf will buy a system that has Linux/Netscape on it but costs $50 less than a machine laden with Windows95. We have Netscape on our UNIX machines at work and the internet experience is the same as on a PC running Windows. That must be what scares old Bill so much. What advantage does Internet Explorer on Windows have over Netscape Navigator on Linux? Cheers, Norm
