dont you think MS would like you to use their browser? That isn\'t monopolistic, it is just like how AOL forces you to use their browser, same thing. Only AOL is a much worse service.
Win XP is a highly impressive piece of software. I had to watch a video of it at work yesterday so I could tell people the features of XP. SOme of the stuff really made me believe MS has made a quality product.
The guy was using a 2 month old, unfinished beat of it and he did several plug-and plays, had tons of programs running under several differnt user\'s names (which he switched to on the fly), plugged in a camera, loaded it automatically, thumbnailed the pics and showed them to you. XP also has new tech that can resize an image or sound file to an extremely different size.
There was several other things, and if my comuter didn\'t suck balls, I would buy it, without a doubt.
