And Microsoft (or Bertelsmann) didn't own TCP/IP. They tried anyway. I just believe that Microsoft being the "bad guys" automatically makes Apple/Jobs the "good guys". They *all* want world domination, without any competition. Unfortunately (?),m Jobs shot his own leg off during hist quest for ultime world domination, leaving Gates no option to gain this goal for himself. Appararently, Yerox Parc were the only ones who didn't directly go for this ultimate goal. And they disappeared mighty fast from the scene. Howeverm without them, we'd still be stuck with mouse-less character-based displays :-) - Klaus _________________________________________________________ This mail sent using V-webmail - http://www.v-webmail.orgg _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
