Please read what I wrote. I said it wouldn't _make_ the other software
vendors port their software. In other words, the other vendors will not
be forced to port their software. They will port it if they want to. I
contend that most will not want to. I guess we'll see who's right.

And please tell me what you meant in bringing up Wordperfect. Are you
giving it as an example of portable software?
