Have you read the book "Competing on Internet Time" yet? According to what I have browsed so far, my assertions concering NSCP's attempting to break a profit too early may have been correct. Tactical mismanagement seems to have had more to do with NSCP's undoing than MSFT's alleged illegal actions. I have always claimed that NSCP should have never tried to charge for the client. Server sales and the sale of advanced server side apps (maybe even rudimentary SAP style applications) should have been thier focus for revenue. They would have done better raising the money as a secondary offering or private placement than trying to skim it off of the top of the browser market. It is this single factor that tipped the scales in MSFT's favor. RCM
