Dwight,

>And if the Pontiac dealer won't sell me a Firebird with a Blaupunkt installed, I can always buy a Ferrari, Maserati or Porsche instead.

>>What's the analogy there?

One that holds about as much logic as the MacOS, OS/2, Linux argument that everyone always comes up with. In simpler terms, they are alternatives but not necessarily realistic ones for most users at this point. Want Netscape delivered with your $3000 PC? Forget it, buy a Mac or SUN instead if you want Netscape. What kind of reasoning is that?

Cheers,

Norm
