Microsoft is getting ready for Win2k Datacenter Release and have been
pushing hard. Shortley to release 64 bit Win2k as well. Microsoft is
getting ready to hit the market place real hard. Doubling the offices in
North Carolina (Charlotte) for support of upcoming products. They have
decided to let the vendors provide full support of OS and Hardware when
running Datacenter. Plus the release of the .NET applications is ramping
them up. So much stuff coming out of Microsoft lately that its hard to keep
up.

Subject: [REBOL] REBOL, AMIGA/TAO & MICRO$OFT DOT-NET (Long!) Re:
Gee Mark, I think we got more than 2 cents worth, more like $5. Anyways, I
must
agree that there seems to be alot of uncertainty building in the computer
industry as of late. I think what somebody said about the OS becoming a
commodity is pretty close to what we will be seeing. Yeah thats alot of
work
for REBOL, but fortuneately much less for those using such technologies.

PS: Have you heard the particularly large thumps of Micro$ofts recent
product
releases. They have been constricting their license holders a little bit
trying
to drum up cash lately too. I think they possibly might be trying to avoid
taking a hit in q4 forecasts.
