Dybdahl, my point was that everyone expects a lot more functionality from the desktop than a the 4MB version of Linux. And you compared that in some sense to win2k. So, the reference to embedded NT for limited function use. The problem of hitting the hard disk when surfing is an artifact of optimizing the code for modem users, I think. Have you tried using netscape+win2k ? Maybe this problem goes away if you do that. Regarding COM, your point is one I share. However, it does lead to cleaner programming in most instances.
