Welp... Yes, true, but...
ZIP technology became integrated into Windows ME and XP, right?
And wasn't Acrobat Reader 5.0 bundled into Windows 2000 and ME?
So... why not at least integrate reader capabilities for the
mostly widely used Office programs into the core functionality of
Windows XP? Or do you think that would be grounds for a lawsuit???
