>Netscape's Clark: Keep Internet Explorer with Windows
Netscape co-founder Jim Clark, one of Microsoft's former chief adversaries, is making an unlikely appeal: Break up Microsoft, but keep the Windows operating system and the Internet Explorer Web browser in the same company. It's an unexpected plea from a man who saw his own company plunge from the Net's heights, in large part because of the link between Windows and IE. http://news.cnet.com/news/0-1003-200-2047407.html CNet.com, 000609
