And so to keep China buying from MS - MS offers to let China view source code? For some reason that annoys me. FRANKI: The only way I would trust that, is if I was allowed to compile the M$ source and then compare it to the binaries off a windows CD.. (use checksums to validate.) There is no way I would just accept their word that the source they offer is the total of windows code. I would bet that the NDA china had to sign to get the src had stipulations against compiling the code.. I wouldn't trust M$ as far as I could kick them.. and while I could probably kick big Bill a fair way.. when you add the other management fellows it becomes inversly proportional. :-) rgds Franki
