<< I would guess that the individual who buys an operating system, application software and peripheral components separately, and then installs them personally, represents only a small portion of Microsoft's real consumer mix, and should not be used as the primary focus in discussions of cost or usage. >> Agreed, it is probably a small percentage. But the person who buys everything from a single company gets whatever they get. As a consumer it may feel comfortable to give up your choices and not worry about it, but ultimately, there will be no competition. I don't think you would argue that economic competition is anything but good. Mike
