Charles;

No, that is not what I was saying. You said:

"I take Microsoft's decision to depart from NT with Win2000 as either an admission that NT wasn't a suitably flexible base on which to build, or as an attempt, despite their antitrust problems, to gain a market advantage by breaking the software of other vendors."

I am simply saying that neither of these conclusions is true.

Did you ever stop to think that any driver incompatibility between the two OS's could be due to legitimate product enhancements designed to increase the overall stability of the platform, as opposed to being the result of some evil scheme or conspiracy theory?

Regards;
Jordan
