Are there any Win98 Beta testers out there? Just heard on CNBC interviewing a WSJ reporter. He (did not get name) said while IE was easily removable on W95, such is not the case for W98. IE is fully integrated in W98. For those who are privileged to Beta copies of W98, is this true? If yes, do you think it is easy for MSFT to un-integrate IE? Ramsey

Citizen Hal I really don't think shareholders should worry about routine document disclosure of Bill Gates or anyone elses e-mail. It's nothing new that e-mail is discoverable information. Since nothing about the content has been disclosed, this information is no more interesting than the fact that it's damp today in Seattle. I'm encouraged to hear that Microsoft is in settlement talks. Maybe the whole industry can get on with real innovation rather than keeping new technology away from consumers so they can pay more for fewer features. Mike
