Yes, I did also implement servicepack 2 recently, That will it be...

After the SUN-trial you could wait for this...

SO, what does this mean for the technology the SQUeak-plugin does use. ("You
should use Netscape is not a satisfying answer: The world around me - wife,
daughters, my university is using Microsoft-line, My computer(s) should stay
compatible with these people. It is also a drawback for the spreading of
Squeak under the people. (Squeakland for schools etc..)

The test of this theory is, of course, Microsoft abandoning EMBED.

Then, on August 10th, came a note from Apple engineering staff to the
QuickTime VR mailing list saying that "IE 5.5 SP2 [for Windows] will not use
the QuickTime plug-in no matter what you do. Microsoft has disabled all
'Netscape style' plug-ins, there is nothing you can do. Look for information
from us about how work around this problem in the near future."

Goodbye EMBED.

Of course, this has a delightful outcome for Microsoft. They are able to
abandon Java and blame it on Eolas. It puts even more oomph behind
Microsoft's move to .NET. And as an extra bonus, Apple's QuickTime (and
RealPlayer, too!) gets nuked in favor of Microsoft's next-gen Media Player.

Sun and Eolas gave Microsoft lemons, so Microsoft is making lemonade. Now
where in any of this is the part about serving customers? It isn't there.
