Norm,

I guess you are for one world government or something, who knows ….

The Chinese are concerned about MS because they might be partners with the US government, and not acting in the best interest of the Communist Chinese regime.

The US is in the process of trying to emasculate Microsoft.

Are you are incapable of recognizing irony?

Have a good day.

Tom

Michael,

"From my experience with Red China, whatever yours are theirs and whatever theirs are theirs."

Sounds like standard business practice at BillCo to me. Microsoft may have read Sun Tzu's Art of War but China wrote it.

Last time I check, Bill Gates did not force me to pay him. I am happy too to it. I used quite a lot of OS that available at the time (OS/2, OS/2 Warp, Apple, a little Linux, PC-DOS, Windows 2.XX, Windows 3.XX, Windows NT, Windows 9X) From my experience, the market is perfectly correct to pick Windows as winner. Here are my limited observations:
1. OS/2, OS/2 Warp, I spended more time to try to make my system to work than Windows due to lack of device drivers and apps.
2. Apple, It is more for liberal art than engineering. It crashed just as much as Windows and cost twice as much.
3. Linux, for the limited time that I used, everyone need to be a sysop to use it. I am not a sysop and beside what do I use it for my daily activities.
4. Windows varieties: from sucked Windows 2.xx upto Windows 3.0. Windows 3.1 was an improvement to Win9x is a good one. If you need the more secure, used NT or 2000.

I chose Windows because I like it not because someone force me. Now, how do I make the government NOT to protect me.
Regards

Mike.

PS> There is only 1 idiot in the President election that the VP "Gore" who sold out the America to the Red Chinese for a few million bucks from the Red Armies. Clinton and Gore should be trialed and shot for treason. They did more damage to America than Benedict Arnold ever did. It will take America 100 years to correct what Clinton did in 8 years.
