I think Microsoft can compete much better than they are right now. Apple has to be about 20 times as good just to keep up - inertia such as it is. When Microsoft starts to feel like it's losing, it will come out with better products. I believe they can do it because they have the money. They just need to hire the right people, focus the money on develompent, and they'll have something. Mike
