Wow, I guess I have bad luck then. On my windows 95 box, I put in a new vid card and rebooted, windows had all kinds of problems refuseing to accept the new drivers. So I had to reinstall, shortly after that I switched to linux. Hell if windows is going to be that much of a bitch then why use it when I can play with linux:)
This is just an example of the kind of company Microsoft is. It will make a decision based on getting them market share and keeping it. If the tables were reversed there is no way in hell Microsoft would open their standards. But standards are always a good thing, even if Microsoft gets some marketshare in the process.
