Mondoxjake, there is software available to remove IE strip and 98 down to it's essentials. It is called "98Lite". Microsoft may be fudging about how critical IE the browser is but the guts of IE are put to use in a lot of place and very well in my opinion. I like being able to type a url into a file browsing window and bang, I've gone from file browser to internet browser. Using the browser metaphor through the system simply makes sense and it works well. But you can still use Netscape if you want. As of late March, Netscape's market share was reported to be down to 7%, so they can use your support. Hey Linux folks, I see that "Caldera, Conectiva, SuSE, and TurboLinux--announced the creation of a single Linux distribution." This sounds like a move in the right direction, but watch out, they may become another Microsoft.
