Win 98 is selling very quickly in the most porfitable segment possible, the retail stores. The lack of acceptance of NT5 (which I really don't beleive given MSFT's marketing track record) will not hurt the company. This brand new, virgin territory for MSFT. NT 4 has already proven itself as the low end enterprise OS of choice for new buyers. NT5 is going after a target that is nothing but new money for MSFT. The threat if any, will be towards that of the incumbent vendors that MSFT is looking to replace. Namely the big unix guys and the small to medium mainframe vendors.
