Dan3 Look at the "consumer" version. Not the professional version The price is less. For now. I bet even the consumer version will head towards $200 soon. Windows will probably come with only edit.exe. Or, better yet, some implmentation of ed/vi. Consumers could first download a gcc then emacs and then build. May be not as dramatic, but the goal is clear. I wish DOJ had proposed splitting MSFT into 3 identical companies. Imagine the mayhem ;-) Does sprintf() return a pointer or a character count <g> Looking forward to it. IMHO computer consultants will make tons of money. <ggg> Dinesh
