Dan, I am not too sure that I believe the editorials you posted BUT I will play along and you can assume that I do. Anyway it appears that the different editorials are actually talking about the same time period with different prices... The first editorial talks about the time of the Win95 launch and so does the last one (if people only read your selective cuts they could be mislead). Lets add the paragraph just following yours OEMs were none too happy about the MDA deals. But one by one, they fell. The last of the major hardware makers to sign on the dotted line to carry Windows 95 was The IBM PC Co. Officials there signed the MDA just hours before Microsoft released Windows 95 on Aug. 24, 1995, in the costliest and most hyped product rollout ever. So both editorials are discussing licensing fee's circa 1995 and they two editorials seem to disagree on the price at that time, but the editorials in no way appear to be making a statement about prices that are going up from 1995 to now maybe the price was higher than DOS and that is what the second editorial is referencing but it was a nice attempt to mislead anyway.
