All of the facts referenced in this document were acquired in a few hours using the Internet tools FTP, Gopher, and WWW from my office20 on a private Internet tap (a service not available to the average Microsoft employee). Even with our terrific library resources, excellent research staff, and access to Internet e-mail, it would have taken a considerable amount of time to assemble the data for this memo without direct access to these Internet resources. In fact, much of the data provided here is available exclusively in the form of automated reports and discussions on the Internet. All of the product and research teams at Microsoft have a great deal to gain by having ubiquitous access to the Internet. Today, it is probably fair to consider Internet connectivity a competitive advantage in the software industry. Tomorrow it will be a measurable disadvantage if we’re not wired.
