>I hear that. However, do you agree with it? I don't (or at least, I haven't heard a valid justification for it yet).

I'm not sure. I see the point. In terms of Windows a single process can only
exist at a particular path. Hence running an InProc server changes the path.
Makes sense...

OTOH, they're not true to that. Based on that assumption if you instantiate a
COM object it should be instantiated in the same directory as the host. But
it's not - it instantiates in Win\SYSTEM (if you query SET("DEFAULT") that's
what you get). So, somehow the object is maintaining its own path... Sounds
like a lazy excuse to me...
