Abstract: | The Internet changes everything. Coming soon: Cheep, Web-ready mini-programs. No wonder the giants are jumpy. Imagine that to read this magazine, you needed a special program for the text, another program to view the photographs, and yet another to look at the charts. Or, to watch your favourite TV shows, you needed a CBS viewer to watch David Letterman and an NBC viewer to watch Seinfeld. You wouldn't stand for it. But this is precisely what computer users have been doing for years. This fall millions of consumers who want Microsoft Corp.'s Window 95 operating system will spend billions to trade up to PCs using Intel Corp.'s speedy Pentium chips. |
