My, Ted Waite's being courageous these days. First he didn't sign off on Bill's "We are the world" letter that all the other OEMs lined up for, now this. He seems to be betting that the antitrust action will give him a bit of cover for awhile. I wonder what old Joachim Kempin will have to say about this. Three Moo's for Ted, I say. Cheers, Dan.

Temp' Regarding Waite and Gateway, I think GTW can reap a ton of free publicity if they take MSFT head on. All they have to do is to offer W98 with IE or Navigator, per consumer request. Just make that one of the choices on the order menu. If MSFT screams bloody murder, they have just lost their case with DOJ. If MSFT says no problem, then DOJ is going to have hell of a time proving predatory practices. In either case, GTW wins as the good guy who really delivers a CHOICE to the consumers. Ramsey
