Hi,

I just thought I would sure with you some info that was in the paper
this week (Thursay I think).
Microsoft has changed its objective from 'windows in every home' (I
always thought this was a good idea - I like being able to see outside)
to 'windows in every device'. They plan to use WinCE for this and are
entering a partnership with BT, to allow them to produce devices for
things like wireless 'net.

It sounds like Mr Gates is planning a direct assault on Amigas target
market.

I leave you with one thought - Imagine having to use windows to change
the channel on the tv.
