No, they're marginal because consumers only want and need a single OS.

I love how Microsofties love to ignore history when they make their lofty pronouncements.

Compaq sold their dual-boot kit with every server. Every one. Seems like there was a need and a want then.

Then Microsoft put a gun to their head and it stopped.

Tell you what. We'll keep an eye on the market over the next year and, when you're wrong, I expect you to be man enough to admit it.

Sure. Provided that Microsoft actually complies with the ruling, which, based on their history, is highly doubtful.

Who's talking about servers? MS doesn't have a monopoly on them. We're talking about desktop PCs. Or did you forget that?
