Forgive extending this non-Xy thread, but has anyone noticed that the
"crime" Microsoft is accused of is *giving away* a browser? What is
this--unfair gifts?
Okay, so technically, the "crime" is contracting with OEM's to include the
gift with their installation of Win95. So what? I got the gift browser with
my system, tried it out, and decided to use Netscape instead (as do 70% of
Win users).
