Mani, If Netscape has accepted MSFT's proposal to split the market, browser's would cost a pretty Penney. I will not argue with the fact that MSFT tried to destroy Netscape. Netscape tried (and failed through the means of marketplace) to destroy Microsoft as well. I am not sure what makes you think that MSFT was in fact serious in splitting the market with nobody like Netscape. Maybe MSFT thought that management was as incompetent as Netscape programmers and would fall for such a negotiating trick. The fact is that Netscape is dead, and Windows (95, NT, 2000) is not any more expensive than it was before. Joe
