Yes, and internet explorer 1.0 was crap, and windows 1.0 was crap, etc, etc.

It usually takes 2 or 3 attempts, but so far gates has eventually dominated every segment of a market he targets.

Mark,
Yeah, I pretty much think Microsquish is crap too. Windows 98 still not as good as a Mac was over 10 years ago, and he pretty much copied it from them. Still, look who won. I guess you could say, 'Where does a 500 pound gorilla sit? Ans: Anywhere it wants to.'

At work, we have the MS whatever for internet access, and it sucks. Moreover, it is even slower than my knees. I water the plants while it loads up and connects. And then I continue waiting.

Their embedded search function is pathetic. I do not use it.
