Name but a single Microsoft product that came out early. You are mistaken in so many ways that only John Ominor would dare to address them. Ominor defies you to list any Microsoft product what was announced both signicantly before its release and publicly, and yet was delivered on time. Internet Explorer 4.0, Windows NT 5.0, and Windows 97 have all been pushed back. ____________________________________________________________________ John Ominor #dmccoy@mailhost.mnsinc.com Even now, The Inhuman ponders the fate of everything you hold dear.
