>>wow, that is cool. Is ther any more info on this?

>Yeah, here's some more (sobering) info: If Judge Jackson gets his way, capabilities like these could go away! It is precisely because Microsoft has integrated browser technology as a set of components into the OS that this capability exists. Write your public officials and tell them that Judge Jackson is dead wrong, that the consumer has not been harmed by Microsoft, and that tens of thousands of programmers and millions of software users depend on innovations like this. (I'm not kidding. There's a LOT at stake here. Your future and mine probably depend on it).

Sorry Mark I don't buy that. Unless you're saying the decision will prohibit M$ from incorporating any browser technology in their OS at all. Still, even so there has to be other ways.
Even if you are right, there will be some consequence to Gate's strong arming when he realized he missed the boat on the internet early on as other's saw it. This he readily admits. They won't let him walk scott free either way. Win or lose this case.
