Thats exactly what it means Eric. The product they can sell their customer has an advantage over the other OEM competitors. What Dell may not realize is that the other OEMs are likely being played against each other by MSFT. They are likely not getting any better deal than Compaq, IBM, HP.

From what I have read, the OEMs know whats going on but are too scared to make an issue of this for fear that MSFT will bump up the licensing price on the Win98. Talk about blackmail from a monopoly. Tell me that this is good for the industry and economy.

Just my opinions.
