Keith Hankin, proving he STILL doesn't get it says: "Hey, you were the one who was gushing about this feature, as if it was something new. Perhaps it is to you, but it wouldn't be if MSFT was a real innovator. The reason why you should care is because if more incentive for MSFT to innovate in the form of customer demand and competition, you would have had this extremely useful feature years ago." Buck tries to be calm and explains: In a discussion about whats new in Win98 vs Win95, pointing out what a MAC does (or has done) makes NO SENSE! Off topic, but responding to your comment: If thats the way to make $$$, then more power to MSFT. People like to think of MSFT as a tech company, they are in fact a Marketing Company. Now that I have your attention, please allow me to give you my opinion about the whole MAC vs WINDOWS debate. IT IS NOT A RELGION! Mac may have the better ideas in O/S features, BUT MSFT wins hands down on how to make $$$$ from it. As a stock holder, thats all that matters... Beta / VHS -- who really cared which had the better tech? I will tell you who, and then get them to confess to still having a $800 Sony Betamax in their closet.
