>>W. Brian Arthur, an economist at the Santa Fe Institute...>> This idiot is an ivory-tower economist... what does he know about commercial software? He says MSFT hasn't innovated... i still maintain FAT was innovative at the time of DOS. MSFT puts new stuff out just as fast as all their little fingers will type... it's just that it's so difficult to get that ever-growing list of bloated features to work together... maybe COM will be the answer... (stifling a guffaw)... ..anyone else here get the sense that all of this is much ado about nothing, and that another major advance in computing is about to hit us all upside the head? This PC thing seems so... ubiquitous and entrenched.... so NSCP gets their browser installed.... nothing from nothing leaves nothing. FWIW Andy
