I think that first off, its a combination of sour grapes (on the part of the liberals who think Bill Gates has too much money) and a well-moneyed lobby effort. Having just downloaded IE4, Its a lot b

I see the difference as Microsoft has just about cornered the market on PC operating systems(how often is a PC sold without windows?) Although I agree with you in principal it really is mixing apples

If Microsoft provided all the operating systems there might be some validity in this but that isn't true, and what happened to the good ol' Yankee sense of fair play and competition? As a Mac user, I

I second that. I have Windows NT5 Server (beta1) installed on another PC...and it has to be MS's best OS to date. I for one love IE...and there are many advantages for using IE over NS. (personally

What's worse, is that some new cars have integrated hifis which cannot be stolen. Great idea, until you want to upgrade. No, the MGF doesn't have this system. You can get around the Windoze problem b
