We shall always have M$ users (it's where the money comes from), so maybe 
another approach to solving their problem, rather than blaming the breakage 
of the Internet on them, would be welcome :).

I hope so.

One thing I've got to learn throughout my experience is that as much as many 
of us may think evil M$ is an inferior product, there are many other people 
and corporates that think M$ is the best thing that ever happenned to the 
world since the canned beef. 

Businesses spend millions of shillings/dollars on M$ products each year around 
the world, and the mention of open source, more so, a FREE product that will 
only cost man hours doesn't make sense to them.

All this means that trying to get Raymond to have his guys move over to some 
open source product will be difficult, and probably won't be his fault, but 
he can try. 

Let's not hold our breaths in anticipation, though.

Mark.
