I agree with you. If it weren't for Win3.1 and trumpet wincsock, I wouldn't have gotten online.

However, that being said. MS could do a lot better with their product.

Chris, I know they give a lot away. Their charity donations alone are amazing. I meant it would be nice if a few more of their decisions were based on what is good for the future of computing and the web. In the long run, of course, good for them too.
