   As I see it, Bill Gates (Yep, the same guy who once upon a time
lambasted computer hobbyists as pirates and software thieves) is
pissed because up 'till now, he controlled the only commercial
(mabye 'commercial' is not the right word, but you get my meaning)
windowing system. Now he's got some competition.

   Gee, I wonder if IBM's licensing of NeXTStep indicates any
dissatisfaction with the Gates/Microsoft organization...
