Oh yes. This will be just brilliant. No software ownership anymore,
pay by click on menu item or sponsored - broker ads flying over my
charts. Finally I will have my thin Microsoft versions were I only
have those functions that I really need (approximately 5). And if I
need more then Microsoft will "see" through my Internet connection
that I am feverishly looking for something and they will sell it to
me. Yes, I love it. And their online-mega-thesaurus will recognize
that I am using dirty language in my letters and will link seamlessly
to some appropriate web sites - thank you. Beta versions, incomplete
software versions, Y2K problems will be a thing of the past since I
don't have any software anymore. If it doesn't work they can switch
it off instantly. Whole bunches of lawyers will be out of work.
Performance problems will be gone - its the ISPs fault - only need
enough computer for those animated 3D ads.
Where must I send my dongle ?
