Great info, JMH...but like a lot of others I prefer to not have everything with MS,and if Morro does do validity checks and forwards other info to MS then enough said for me. I do like MS stuff...as an OS...but think they should stick to their core functions . Allow others who are experts in their field to provide add-on software etc. To date, MS have not had a good response to their forays into non-OS software,e.g. Live search etc. Even some of their Office type product add-ons,like Picture Viewer/Editor are done much better by other software makers. I guess I'm in the camp of:"prove you can do it better than the rest" camp. I have an inherent distrust of any monopolising move by any company in any field after a lifetime of being in business. There is an old saying :" the only good monopoly is the one you own" which I have found,to my own detriment at times,is true in regards to any industry which seeks to be the only one available , giving them control over where client money is spent.Again,as we all know..what is great in this version,often turns into bloat in the next...and that has ocurred countless times with PC software,good examples being the full suites of Nero, Nortons etc.
