If its free and from Microsoft id have a second look at the small print. Maybe they just offer it free to get you hooked for more expensive upgrades/ sofware packages, or perhaps the software is free now and it will start costing when they have hooked enogh small businesses.

Heheh.. if you'd be a software vendor trying to compete in the business you would know what you're talking about. As of now you don't.

A comparable situation would be that MS chose to code a free Microsofts High flight sim and then offer the MMOG for free to run HT out of business. Then, when there is no competition to speak of, ramp up the price. :aok

Whats a "moslem" ?

Is that some kinda moss covered lemming or something?

Will this new accounting stuff from Billybob count these mossy lemmings up for me?

If I sign up for it do I get a free toaster or something?

Can I have whats behind door number 2 instead?

so many questions, so little time!
