You are dreaming on the one MCSE or Tech per 5 users. I have over 80 workstations at my local Business unit with over 100 users, and I support them all, no one else. I am a one man operation. Granted I do have my MCSE, but I just got it a year ago, and would not say I needed it for my job. I just wanted to see the diferences between NT and 2000 and the company picked up the tab. So I better myself and they get to keep me for another year. Then again I also have my MCT and teach Win2K MCSE classes. So maybe I can handle over 100 users by myself.
ONEPOINT,
The only problem is, that how do you know where the people live that have downloaded it. Your commercials are for your market. If I do not live in your market, why do I need to see your commercials. Plus I believe the FCC frowns upon local advertisements being broadcast outside of the local market. Because how am I going to support your advertisers, if I live 1000 miles away. So it does not matter. But all TV shows are copyrighted and fall under US copyright laws, so you are by law not supposed to record and redistribute that without permission from the copyright holder.
As I understand this as a computer user. I am free to decide on my own which browser I use. If Windows comes with IE great, but if Netscape was a better browser I would then either buy it or download it and install it. No matter how much of a Monopoly MS is they still can not make the end user use IE, especially if there is a better browser out there. As I see lazy people will keep IE and if Netscape was smart instead of whining about it all they could have just made there browser better, or at least make it better than IE. Which at the time Netscape was better in my opinion, I used it and I am picky. Now the tables have turned, instead of making a better browser Netscape just went downhill, at least in my opinion. Also Netscape is ussually the default browser in Linux. So does that mean when Linux has more market share they will be a monopoly? Well I know it won't because Linux Distro's are not just one company. Also I always thought that to be a monopoly, you had to be hurting consumers. Who was the consumer group that complained? In what I saw they always mentioned Netscape and other companies were the complaintants, where were the consumers? It is just a bunch of whining companies, because they could not compete!!!
