Re: >>I think Microsoft or Bill deliberately played down the prospects of Win98 prior to shipping...so as to reduce level of expectation. They must have known that Win98 would do well.....<< It's called "Bill's Bluff" and he's been using it for years, especially at earnings time when "next quarter's earnings will be under pressure".
