I've been following the series of articles on ZDnet for a few days.  I've
also been reading the comments readers have posted and I've never seen so
much pro-Microsoft sentiment in one place (outside their corporate
headquarters that is).  Makes me wonder if they are all Microsoft employees
- or at least Microsoft shills <g>.  

If so, it seems to me that there are better ways in which they could be
gainfully employed.  I truly wish that M$ and Mr. Gates could get it through
their heads:
     a) that they have no clue what I, as a user, want
     b) that despite what they believe, they do not know what is best for me
     c) that their idea of "the best experience," and mine differ greatly

I do not think I am alone in this.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm beginning to wish I'd started with
a MAC!

<tip type="Homesite">
If you need to strip the code from a web page or just a section of a web
page, highlight it, then right click and chose "selection."  The options are
"strip tags" and "strip outermost tags."  Use "strip tags" with caution
because it will strip all tags including anchor tags and image tags that you
may wish to keep.  If you do wish to keep them, simply highlight the
sections that do not contain anchors or images.
