Re: Boycott Microsoft

Hi Joe,
Yes I have, and sometimes just made it with deposits as the checks cleared.

My point is that the product has survived, the market did that not Microsoft.

It is not a question of whether the product could have been better, others in the market could not topple it.
Microsoft did it to IBM, IBM did it to Frieden (remember theses),

As Bill said, there is another Microsofts in the wings waiting for it's move. I don't think it is weak sisters Apple, Sun, or Oracle, but maybe companies like Linux or Opera.
