To all,

Does anyone know about Bill's latest trick? Here is an email I received. Is it true?

>>Microsoft's latest trick is to force people to install
>>explorer if they want to install any other Microsoft
>>package (e.g. excel, C++, whatever). Supposedly, many
>>of the installers will *abort* unless you install explorer.
>>
>>Burn in Hell, Bill.
>>
>>-Don.

Another satisfied user who is not quick to understand the intregity of the Windows Experience and his role in it. Bill's no simple software engineer confused and scared by the strange ways of politics; he knows exactly what he is doing. Sounds like he is preparing the sheep for another shearing... Microsoft good; Java baaaad.

Cheers,

Norm
