Peter,
Why would Microsoft be ceding the battle to TCP/IP and not Java? As I
understand, ActiveX can run over TCP/IP, as well as Java. And how is the
operating system (NT) a "more secure and higher performance tool?" What
are you comparing NT to in this instance? Surely not a protocol, such as
TCP/IP....
