Much of this centers on Microsoft's insistance that EA Internet-based games would run on servers controlled by Microsoft. According to EA President John Riccitiello, "We understand and like Sony's business model, and we don't yet understand Microsoft's." Hm, maybe that's because Sony doesn't actively buy out or destroy all its game authors and publishers? http://www.nytimes.com/2002/05/16/technology/16GAME.html -- http://www.pricegrabber.com "We're smarter individually." -- Larry Niven ------ End of Forwarded Message For archives see: http://www.interesting-people.org/archives/interesting-people/
