Why the Big Story Is Software
,----[ Quote ]
| The important point is, Web programs need only a browser to work. The
| more popular they get, the less relevant Vista and Leopard, with all
| their fancy new bells and whistles, become. And because the new Web
| programs are all based on industry standards, even the choice of a
| browser is less important. For the past 10 years, Microsoft has
| designed all of its Web efforts to favor its Internet Explorer
| browser. But the new programs bundled under Microsoft's Office
| Live brand are designed to work equally well on IE and Mozilla's
| Firefox.
