Microsoft has increased its prices with each new release. I presume their reasoning is that there aare more features. I would rather have a slimmer OS without a bundle of "features" I don't use. Take out Internet Explorer, Windows Media Player, Microsoft Messenger, Outlook, MSN Explorer, Online Services and let me pick. Most of the holes and vulnerabilities come from these "features".
Microsoft XP Pro $299, Apple Panther $129, SuSE Linix 9.1 Professional $89 (or free) and my favorite x86 OS BeOS $69 (before it died) Price being NO indication of quality. I predict that Longhorn will have a MSRP of $499.
