Maybe MS is realizing that letting people >>run Windows apps. on something other than MSDOS is a good thing. [sorry I have to reply through heresay, I missed the original article] ON the other hand, I am happy to find out that apple is FINALLY liscensing its system as "Apple/Macintosh Destop" or something. Announcements were made yesterday or something that sun and apple have signed agreements to do a nice port to sparcs, and I think other manufacturers have things in the works. HOPEFULLY, they will do a FULL port (unlike "WABI"), and get all the multimedia stuff, audio, quicktime, etc, etc in there. I'd MUCH rather have that, than an MS windoze interface. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Philip Brown, CIS major, UC Santa Cruz Author of "kdrill", and "xmandel" Winging my way out of academia soon... philb@cats.ucsc.edu philb@soda.berkeley.edu
