Wow, that means AOL can ruin another good thing.

Speaking of Microsoft and Linux. SPAMI am actually surprised that miscroft has ont come out with its own Linux Distro. SPAMI think it would be a nice more for them and it would definetly expand their market.

Yeah, anything AOL gets it's hands on goes to hell in a hand basket in a hurry, Netscape is a good example. But if AOL really does co-brand Netscape to Linux, Bill can kiss his kingdom goodby as 'itchiban, takasan, number one boysan'.
