I think the issue with MSFT is also the desktop appearance, MSFT dictates how the desktop should look before Computer Makers could ship a computer to a customer. I think the DOJ should go after MSFT regarding this issue, how could they tell CPQ, DELL, DEC, IBM etc. that the appearance of the desktop should be according to MSFT standards. I guess the only way you could do this if you don't have any choice. CPQ tried to put NSCP icon on their computers instead of MSFT and we all know what happened. Pierre
