Pat:
This could be very big for Msft in coming years. The present emergency may keep attorneys so busy
they no longer have time trying to destroy one of the outstanding US companies and the Fed may need the
huge tax income Msft and employees have paid and still could provide if let live.
Msft is certainly no monopoly in this field, and I expect they will follow Dells lead in giving people a bargain
compared to AOL.

These 5 companies should be around for many years
Msft, Dell, Ibm, Csco, Aol
A Msft /Aol combo is out-would get sued
Csco continues to buy competitors, may get sued later
Dell will not buy IBM, but may make computers for them
IBM is too solid a name and company to ever vanish.
Hwp and Cpq will continue to improvise
JMHO

CPQ is taking contracts at a loss to keep their "pride"...
