I don't get it -- with micros~1 and micros~2 in the fray,
wouldn't they *still* be smart enough to figure out ways by which to
maintain supremacy, _even_ with all the bureaucracy (did i spell that
right? -- ah, dict rules ;) and other formalities?
Infact, IMHO, they're probably going to be bigger giants ,
what with an "OS" branch and an "IE/Office/other fu" branch...
