So Bill Gate announce to step down comes at the same time as support for w98 is ending... Coincidence?

For me M$ is a dead company which is in the process of becoming an internet venture...unlike Google that used to be an internet start up and became a brick and mortar company.

M$ reached a dead end street with his OSes and is trying to kick left and right with just about everything that makes a success before they realize it.

They don't know what to do. There is no imagination upthere.

So they copy what Google and Yahoo do.

Bill Gate made a fortune by bundling a few licenced software into one or two suites. No it's done and it's over.

Adding aero effects on Vista is not going to make a revolution at M$.

And they didn't find anything better to do so far.
