Keith,

>>The practice could also serve to undercut Microsoft's competition by luring customers with low-cost licenses that are later changed so that users end up paying a total fee much closer to what Microsoft's competition charges up front.

"His foible was opposition. Wherever his keen eye detected a line that was making a large profit...he swooped down and drove it to the wall, by offering better service and lower rates -- for a time. Then with the opposition driven out, he would raise his rates without pity, to the lasting misery of his clients."

Cheers,

Norm
