Hey! Even the Wall Street Journal lets non-MSycophantism sneak through once in a while. Excerpted from today's column-one story called Some Firms, Let Down By Costly Computers, Opt to "De-Engineer": "...If our products failed as often as Windows 95, we would have been out of business long ago," says [CEO of an Ohio car parts supplier]. (A spokesman for Microsoft Corp...says that when the company hears "of any issue or complaint about our products, we work directly with that customer to resolve it as quickly and effectively as possible.") Story goes on to say how same CEO is resisting Office 97's unnecessary "10 million lines of code", and won't move to Windows 98. We've probably all been "worked with" by Microsoft to resolve things as quickly and effectively as possible. If you're looking at a normal blue screen, press 1. If you're looking at chapter 11, press 2... Fortunately, no mention of SUNW in this story. Regards, --QwikSand
