'course. The idea is that if you try to uninstall IE from w98, your
system will not work properly anymore.
I was hoping that we could accomplish the same with XEmacs by
dropping
as much of it as possible into device drivers.
I can imagine Bill Gates shiping XEmacs with w98 ... and if you try to
uninstall it, you crash your system :-) OK guys, I candidate for collecting
the donations in order to buy a NT source code license ...
