I understand it only too well, but it isn't Microsoft's business model.
How much did you pay for your copy of Internet Explorer when it was
released as a download,or MS Word viewer, or ...
Like webexplorer on OS/2 some years ago, IE is paid for in the Windows
charge. It's also the maintenance tool for Windows.
Did you try USB on Windows 95? Or Windows NT?
MS does give some stuff away, probably in an attempt to keep people on
Windows. IMV the most useful freebie is Virtual PC which allows me to
run Linux (or OS/2) under Windows on my laptop which doesn't have the
hardware capability to run Windows under Linux using Xen.
