What do you mean If you are not connected to the net they can't track anything. Is that not the Point of having a computer? Do some reading on LongHorn,Blackcomb and you will quickly see there is no hack to go around the fritz chip. It notifies Micro$oft if that happens and they delete your files. Welcome to the future! Yes we all need an OS that can do the things that Micro$oft does but I am not sure that will come along very fast. This is a multi- Billion dollar industry and its very hard to change. We have all heard of cars that can get 100 miles to the gallon but do you see one for sale? No because there is too much money in Oil. Linux is also being attacked by Micro$oft and we all know why. Micro$oft wants to control the planet and it is happining right under our noses.

Once LH is released, I'm sure there will be a few underground patches to 'enhance' it. Anyways. by 2005, linux is likely to have out done Windows. Anyone who has used recent versions of the better linux distros will know that linux is getting to be a very nice OS, nearly as good as XP. AS mentioned, the main problem is compatability with windows software.
Microsoft are taking a large gamble by releasing LH, it will be interesting to see how (un)popular it will be.
You can't expect patches to be released before th os! Anyway, no one has anything worry about, as you could stick with your current OS or switch to linux!
