It is not a big issue but MSFT may mass produce software well and market it but that does not make them the gorilla or the internet. Nothing else intended here. I always appreciate your thoughts, and don't typically question your intentions since your motives are fairly clear (and fair). As for MSFT, they are not that bad at what they do on the Internet (expedia.com, carpoint.com). But when/if the market jumps when they join a particular line of business, I agree that it is usually reflex. The other thing about MSFT, they do tend to make their peripheral endeavors profitable; I'm sure there are notable exceptions. Randy
