Someone mentioned owning a software company earlier.

 Hint to this person,
5yrs from
now everyone will lease their application online
instead of
owning CD's or downloading actual programs. I see a
time when
the O/S is the only piece of software on your
machine and
if Mr Bill G has his way as Im sure he will, this
will happen.

He won't. For one very simple reason:
Running  business apps that reside on a computer
owned by Bill means giving Bill access to your
customer
database, their credit card numbers, your accounts
payable, accounts receivable, etc. etc.

Just what sane business person is going to send
this vital information to a company which has proven
time and again that they can't be trusted? Not even to

obey federal laws, much less keep their contractual
"promises".
(Like, for example, the inevitable "guarantee" that
all this critical data will be "encrypted" so that "no

one at Microsoft can see it".

Yea, right!
