So the "battle" is not a Win98 battle, but a Windows NT & beyond battle. This I will agree .... & so will Larry.

Here's a piece from yesterday's release on Win98 from Reuters. But Microsoft is counseling business customers to steer clear of Windows 98 entirely and opt instead for its higher-priced Windows NT system, which is expected to have a long-awaited major upgrade available by early next year. That is the product Gates and other Microsoft executives see as truly critical to the company's future and its ambitions to move its software into ever-larger corporate and enterprise installations. I just don't see how the "mistep" of Win98 is going to sidetrack MSFT's plans to solidify the corporate PC market. I only wish it would.
