Re:MSFT's holdback on rev's has been 2 billion in the past 18 months.

Gene,

Aren't they holding back revs to account for the "sales" of IE4.0; Read: cost of development. I am not sure of this, but I have heard they were doing something of the sort to account for the development expense of IE4.0 since they will not be receiving any revs. from it. TIA for any insight

Regards,

Brian
