Those Microsoft people are amazing too, YuanQing, maybe somebody should wash their mouths out with soap.

With your Anti-MS comment I can tell you have not read the whole article.

As they say the best offence is a good defence. I have noticed that MS FUD statement about Java "this is just another language" is a good defense but how long can they keep it up?
Why would MS even care about running Java on their OS if this is just another language?
Why is MS now trying to control the network with all these new buying sprees? Satellites WebTV cable company etc..

Don't say it so! Java isn't just another language. I appears to me that good old MS is getting ready for the network is the computer concept. Were did I hear this before. Nope it's not MS's idea it's Suns.
MS is up to its famous business tactic were it steals somebody elses idea and profits from it and puts the other company out of business. Well I think this time MS is up against a formatible company called Sun. They don't plan on rolling over and playing dead so bring on the MS FUD.
I have big shoulder to take the MS FUD so keep it coming but when MS adopts Java and the NC you better not have a lame excuse because I won't buy it.

This has to be the quote of the year for Gates. Keep the FUD coming. It never ceases to amaze me the things Gates says. Does he actually think people believe this or WHAT.

Moreover, Gates said that attempts to prohibit Microsoft from integrating IE into the operating system could well push the software giant out the industry altogether.

I guess MS is giving the UNIX boys that Windows experience they have been missing for so long.

Downloading Troubles For Some IE 4 For Unix Users

Some users of Netscape's Communicator for Unix 4.02 are reporting that when they visit the Microsoft Web site and click on the preview for IE 4.0 for Unix all they get is a blank page.

Now that's what I really call Vapourware.
