Hal, so I don't get the significance of GTW and NEC offering Netscape. Sony and HP already offer it. And why not, it's free right? I don't see why they didn't offer it before.

Perhaps if GTW wants to truly be known as a vendor offering choice, they will offer Corel products.

But this >Further the two companies are interested in a possible outcome of the recent legal action brought against Microsoft: a version of Windows 98 without Internet Explorer.

Ummm....let's see, let me see if I understand this: GTW and NEC are interested in offering less choices for the same price. Gee, thats customer-friendly. Seems like GTW is going from bad to worse: "We'll only offer Office 97 and Netscape. Yeah!"

No big deal to me. There are plenty of PC vendors out there.
