MSNBC Declares NetWinder an Apple Killer From Client Server News, Jan 11, 99 Microsoft news subsidiary, MSNBC, got its hands on one of Corel's Linux-based NetWinder NCs for technical review and pronounced the box a killer - an Apple killer. In its review MSNBC called NetWinder "a breakthrough Linux solution for home and office." The reviewer, who said it took "lots of begging" to get Corel to send MSNBC one of the widgets (one hardly wonders why), raved that it was a "fast little powerful Linux computer." He even gushed about Red Hat Linux and WordPerfect 8 for Linux which would appear to be heresy, pure heresy for one of Microsoft's partially owned subsidiaries. The only criticism he made was of Netscape's Mozilla browser, which, he said, "leaves a bunch to be desired." The final verdict: NetWinder is "wonderful" and "revolutionary" but "in a world of ever-decreasing PC prices, the NetWinder should be compared to an iMac" rather than a Windows PC.
