What next? Will it come to Windows only allowing a user to do business over the internet with a Microsoft owned bank due to some phony "technical innovation"? Yeah, sure Rubel, whatever you say. (I wonder how long it will take Rubel to change his view once his favortite OS includes "phony" internet support. This does seem to be sour grapes).

What next? Will it come to Windows only allowing a user to do business over the internet with a Microsoft owned bank due to some phony "technical innovation"? Actually Netscape would seem to be the more appropriate suspect to watch on that count. Read the prospectus, of which portions were posted on this thread. "Netscape's goal is to become the premier provider* of internet commerce."* Something to that effect.

Mr. Hal Rubel, <<What would be the good of a better non-Microsoft browser if it is eclipsed from consumer view by the abuse of a monopoly at the OS level?>> What if Bill would have said the samething about IBM and their OS PC-DOS 20 years ago. We wouldn't be here talking about this now. I still say, <<Maybe we should ask Netscape to build a better browser, nah that makes too much sense.>>. Netscape is just looking for the easy way out. Oh, by the way, I use Norton Utilities instead of the built in utilities in Windows. I like Norton's better and heck, I even pay for them. I guess Norton is doing something wrong from the "Netscape perspective". Thank you, JK
