One of the more annoying things about the latest version of Netscape is the tiny address window. Anyone know if it's possible to make it longer?

The less money I put into Moneybags' hands, the better.

Got a letter from his lawyer the other day, complaining because a book I was working on mentioned that Microsoft has been compared to the early robber barons by the press. What a whiner.

Maybe you can get a reduced price on the Microsoft Internet Explorer if you negotiate hard enough.

PD, if the book hasn't been published yet, how did they know what it contained? Does Moneybags have a secret camera in your office?

As a condition of permission, they required a copy of any accompanying text for "factual" checking. Really they wanted to make sure the author had no contextual concerns, but it would be hard to mention Gates and Microsoft in a piece's headnote without mentioning the fact that they are so slimy. Er, the fact that they were sued. Several times. For being slimy.
