Windows Soapbox=Youtube "knock-off"

[INTELCRAZY]

Since Microsoft has its deep pockets, they are developing Soapbox to screw up computing even more. No wonder Microsoft gets in trouble for monopolizing. Youtube has constant lawsuits from audio records' companies and the gov't for illegal stuff posted there. Youtube also doesn't have as much of a budget as Soapbox will, Microsoft can afford to make uploads quicker and increase the resolution of hosted videos. This is ridiculous, poor Youtube. Microsoft hasn't offered to buy out Youtube, I don't think they will. Microsoft needs to focus on their OS's and get a few things straightened out there. They are gonna bite off more than they can chew.

Sorry Bill Gates, Sam Walton's family is still #1 and you are #2.

Opinions??

This was in Newsweek sometime

I'd like to know why the h€ll they don't fix Hotmail, never mind get into a pi$$ing match with Google/YouTube. Even with DSL Hotmail takes forever to load or change pages.
