New product launches are often a time to negotiate whatever deals each company is trying to push. 1 or two systems is enough for Dell to launch and be a part of the publicity if they don't like the deal. Holding certification is enough for Microsoft to gain what it wants to gain. I think it likely that whatever deal is struck will happen late in the process.

Jim -
Well I think we probably beat this one to death. The next week or 2 will tell the tale - I think TP probably had the best closing comment. There is something interesting going on, none of us have the answer... let the big boys play the cards and we'll see what they were doing at some point down the road.
