>MSFT has been trying to get into e-commerce for 3 years unsuccessfully, but they sure make a lot of noise about it.

Thats my point exactly. They try to freeze the market until they can dominate. Unfortunately for them, we are on internet time now, and I doubt they can move fast enough. Of course, OMKT cannot sit still either.

Let me ask you this. If you were Yahoo or AOL, would you rather buy your ecommerce site server from OMKT or MSFT especially since you have to compete against MSN.com. Do you think MSFT is above tweaking their ecommerce site server software so that their site might run just a little bit better? Ask Wordperfect. Ask Lotus.

Its also funny that these MSFT news releases keep talking about Win 2000. Over on the MSFT thread, they are saying its slipping AGAIN. Surprise, surprise. NT as an enterprise architecture is dead. MSFT is the IBM of the nineties.
