Customers can look at the source code of Windows, tell Microsoft about bugs and suggest improvements, thus saving the firm a lot of money-but they still have to pay for the next version. Which is a good thing. It's bad enough that we have Windows 95 with 4 different service packs, Windows NT4 with 6 different service packs, Windows 98 and 98SE, and Windows Me. Imagine if anyone could roll their own Windows... Then again, tech support would have Mac as the only supported platform, so maybe it isn't so bad after all. :) -- Andy Zbikowski, Sys Admin | (WEB) http://www.ltiflex.com LTI Flexible Products, Inc. | (PH) 763-428-9119 (EX) 132 21801 Industrial Blvd | (FX) 763-428-9126 Rogers, MN 55374 | (PCS) 612-306-6055
