Willy G--

I guess that makes sense. I suppose that what I meant was, er....how much of the copy of MS Word/XL is fonts? Is licensure a problem for the Reader, and its subsequent finance, or was I closer to the mark with the limited available memory?
It makes sense that if you write code, then you can charge money for it. It's a form of work. When I say 'proprietary,' I'm thinking in terms of Windows not playing well with SONY, and MAC not dealing with Windows, having to use HP paper in my HP printer and a HP moist towelette to clean the screen, &tc.
