Merow. Spitz. Hiss. Rower. Come on people. Don't be caty. Be more charitible. When I was young and in Arkansas with my Grandmother there was a town drunk named, and I am not kidding, Ottis. I asked Grandmother why he wasn't picked up and put in the jail, actually a backroom in the four room courthouse, to sober up. She replied that he made a better example of "how not to live" laying on the curb in a drunken stupor.
I think of Microsoft a lot like that little town used to think about Ottis. Think of all of the "how not to live" examples Microsoft is leaving for the world. MS will be gone one day in the not-too-distant future. All it takes is for them to take a left turn when the rest of the world turns right. Say for instance with their new paladin chip concept... Remember your history when everyone thought the railroads were going to take over the world? It didn't happen because they were too rich and thought they knew it all. They thought they were running railroads. They were actually moving material and people. Microsoft will do a lot more damage before they are gone, I'm sure. Remember what the railroads helped do to the Bison? However, they will be gone. Our grandkids, or for some of us, our great grandkids will just shake their heads at the stories. Just step over the windowphiles and keep moving. Doug --- Chopin Cusachs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > My Klez is a subdirectory of My Virus.
