Get off the "Microsoft was first" non-sense! Not only were they _not_ first, they stole the idea. Or just bought the 3rd best product, and marketed the heck out of it.
Agreed! I do not think Mircosoft has really invented any thing, but they are the best at buying, coping, stealing the invention. Most of their technologies come from others. Or at least the ideas. But they are the best at marketing it. They are the only ones I know who have sold vaporware. The are able to convicence people that they will soon have such and such. Even when it is only at the idea state. I can not believe how they are able to get so many to wait till they are able to produce the vaporware to a real product. So many of what they now own/promote was someone elses... Database, Accounting SW,... The list is almost endless. They buy the product(Does not matter what OS) then make it MS. Stop selling it by orignal name and then sell off what was left of the once great companies. - -- Boyd Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com> ZENEZ 1042 East Fort Union #135, Midvale Utah 84047 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://quantumlab.net/pine_privacy_guard/ iD8DBQFEc6QvVtBjDid73eYRAmt5AJ44fY1L3EcHh4e+cqYbgGtlFabZhQCeMlmN xOyH2CUclC3ZtezGmoURCkY= =p5Dw -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
