Zero risk of that. PDF is an open standard. There must be some other "good reason".

Then can you explain the Internet Explorer law suit?

Because it just works! How many times do you have to hear that! Life's not like you think it should be, N_Jay. Get over it. Don't tell us your were one of the Motorola engineers that designed the cell phone interface from hell, and can't admit it, even to your own family.

Why are Pilot owners such a cult?

Why is N_Jay such a dipstick?

I think I have an easier time answering the first question.

Well, I didn't hit the quote button fast enough to get your original response before you added more stupid insults.

My daughter who is a Graphic designer just bought a Windows machine.
She has used both and is proficient on either. She says a Mac ties her down. To much proprietary software. That being said I think Macs are cool even though I Don't own one.

The point is that it "destroys the market" for add in software.

I think MS has been bashed on this point in the past.
