It too much like the camel sticking it head into the tent, pretty soon only M$ stuff will work. Or M$ decides it won't work, killing 3/4ths of the machines on the planet. BG and I have had our differences but he made a mistake when he called me a pirate in the early days of NT-3.51. NT-3.51 had a habit of its housekeeping disk checker deleting the main .dll library so you had to buy a new copy of NT-3.51 for around $400 in order to recover. I had it happen to 2 machines at about the same age.
