: Although Microsoft has been considered a dictatorship
: in many ways it has produced many positive areas of
: advancement and ease when using their programs.
: Yes! not allowing the independent companies the right
: to produce or sell their products or expertise is wrong.
: It is, however, not right that microsoft be forced to
: change their format of their windows 98 program because
: someone else now wants more of the action. It would
: behove Gates to add the other browsers to his package
: and sell it as before. Why make a bigger problem out
: of this than necessary?
: For those who are really crying about the total package
: that is bought from Microsoft, via WIN 98 and the
: previous packages,what is your problem? You don't have
: to use the Microsoft browser, you can still use anyting
: you like if you want, "I DO", I use netscape. Microsoft
: does not interfere with this in any way.
: After you get done with your big "I WANT MORE" game
: from Microsoft when are you going to attack "AOL"?
: After all there are many programs and url's that can
: not be used if you are not a part of that browser
: useage. GEE!! What do you think maybe we should
: consider attacking every company that interfers in the
: "I WANT MORE" attitude when they are already making
: 60% of the sales to date with their own browser, dah!
: "Netscape".
: In conclusion, Bill Gates has over stretched his arm
: in some ways with control of the small business mans
: rights to using their products to expands with other
: companies needs, however if "WIN" belongs to Gates and
: so does Microsoft then who has the right to tell him
: how he should sell his package on the market. I love
: WINDOWS program and so does a lot of the public or Gates
: wouldn't be where he is today. To say that you are going
: to boycot is rediculous. You may not even want to upgrade
: to WIN 98. Some of us are quite happy with the 95 program.
: There are to many people that love this program
: and without it may never have bought computers or any
: of the other programs if it had not been for the ease
: of the "WIN" programs, mucho, mucho bucks. Some
: control of Gates is important and wise. Buttttttttt
: I wish I would have had his brains and brawn to do what
: he has done. Have faith, things will work out and we
: will all be happy with a few changes and a little pain
: that is what life is all about.
