'What I sent out to friends and others. Maybe we can make a difference IF we all get those who use M$ to realize what the near future holds for them. Fred =========================== If you don't read this, you deserve to get exactly what MickySoft has planned for you......period!! If you value freedom, security, privacy, and if you support what is MORAL and right, then you'll make plans NOW to change the OS and software that is running on your 'puter. And, last.....make certain EVERYONE you know reads this as well. This ISN'T about what any of us prefer for have on our 'puters, or wether I or you like MickySoft. What they have planned is ALL about controlling what you do and how you do it, eliminating ALL competition at the same time, under the guise of protecting copyright. What is REALLY driving M$ is the loss of a HUGE chunk of their server business to Linux, and now the desktop. Read it carefully, and if you have any questions, I'll do my best to answer them.
