Here is an article which shows that Google is set to overtake Microsoft financially! http://www.alleyinsider.com/2008/5/google_to_surpass_size_of_microsoft_windows_in_2009 Expecially noteworthy is the "important observation" on why Google will rise --- "It is a natural monopoly". Let me re-iterate that it is not my intention to say that Google is "evil" --- howver, as companies become monopolies they tend to take the "either you are with us or you are against us" attitude. This is road from civility (inter-operability) towards "evil"ity. ;) Regards, Kapil. -- _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
