MR Ed. I wasnt going to respond to you but your car analogy was SOOOO STUPID that I had to respond. The analogy isnt even close to what myself and others have been saying to you. TAKE YOUR WORD TWISTING LAWYER CAP OFF FOR A SECOND - I know its on pretty tight. What backing do I have that people dont know how to download software. I work for a company that focuses on Customer administration and support. This includes helpdesk services. We get countless people calling - the people with new computers and dont even know how to turn the frikkin thing on much less get on the internet and find a site and download software and install it and configure it to go through their ISP properly. Mr. Ed, You dont have an clue on what the average person with a computer has troubles with. Live in the real world. So lets turn this around on you - what proof do you have that everyone with a computer knows how to perform all the tasks I talked about in the above paragraph? Just because you might know how to do it and you buddies at MSFT HQ all know how to do it, doesnt mean the world knows how to do it. As for the fact that they can be bothered. How many people have a real desire to download the 18Meg compressed Communicator program from the internet at a whopping 28.8kbps? Let me tell you Mr. Ed - that it would sure as hell turn me away from using Netscape when IE is already installed. So there goes all your LAME arguments. You really made yourself look stupid on that posting. WHAT LAME ARGUMENTS ED!!! I hope MSFT has better lawyers than you on their case or they do not stand a chance. Toy
