I was under the impression that they had, but stating an exclusivity with 
microsoft as their vendor of choice. However, that was based on prior 
statements made here before the full synopsis was made by der hans (thanks 
dude).

still, I am getting the impression that they are making excuses.

in any case, alternative avenues may now need to be explored.

sorry if I seem a bit intense on this point, but I have just gotten done with 
repairing a machine here at home that had winblows on it that became infected 
with a few worms, a virii or 2 and 2 trojan horses (it even tried to phone 
home when i connected it into the lan).

so, I don't have a lot of respect for MS products and their attempts as 
adaptability user the MSAA sucks.
