MSFT is a monopoly. They let someone else come up with WWW (long before IE or Netscape) and then decided they were going to destroy the competition and keep it all for themselves Everyone has an opinion on these matters and the debate is far from over. I think Scrapps is right when he stated the times are a changing but just where it all ends up is anyones guess. My first exposure to the Web came from an OS that gave you no option but to click on their browser icon. Perhaps one could say that was unfair but because the company (IBM) didn't have market share of a mainstream OS nobody noticed. I'm sure if IBM's OS/2 had market share and it gave you their own browser to click on, the DOJ would be after them. Does anyone know if Win98 will come with the active desktop as a standard setup?
