Hey Toy did you lead the charge on Waco? MSFT is the great enterprise of our time. Perhaps NSCP should include an OS in their Browser. Or perhaps NSCP should offer a choice of EMail clients as part of their package. Or perhaps Pigs will Fly. Consider that their current earnings occurred in the worst of times- imagine if this were the best of times. I am not alone in this opinion. See what others have to say - even those who take delight in panning MSFT - the hand that feeds them. Copyright (c) 1997, PC World Communications, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

MICROSOFT EARNINGS BEAT EXPECTATIONS pcworld.com Neither meltdowns in Europe and Asia nor the DOJ can keep Windows from making money The company attributed its earnings rise to strong demand for Windows 98 in Japan and Europe and strong sales of Windows NT Workstation, although it said revenue growth for Office 97 has slowed. Since Windows 98 was launched June 25, more than 10 million customers have bought either a Windows 98 retail upgrade or a new Windows 98-based PC, according to Microsoft. What is wrong with these foreigners don't they know that they are getting ripped off - that they don't need that OS with the built in browser? Maybe our DOJ can help our already pathetic balance of payments by prohibiting MSFT from selling abroad. Now there is another idea worthy of your consideration. JFD
