Sure, they put a lot of time into Windows, and all of that time adds up to a major
price, but really if you look at all of the differences between Windows XP and Windows
95/98, they really wasted a lot of time! I don't know if they started XP from scratch
or simply bungled with 2000/NT's interface/code, but why don't they just repackage
98 and sell it on the cheap? [:]|
