Yes, Microsoft could offer Linux for $99 and use CORL for this. Never thought of that. But Windows2000 apparently is very good per feedback from customers.

Bill, Excellent summary of the situation with Linux. I'd like to comment that this is also why Linux will not remain "free". A large corporation (inspired by potential profits) is necessary to steer this ship.

JC continues to insist that software will be free. I continue to point out that his theory is ridiculous.
