1.Microsoft says Windows 2000 sold a million copies in the first three weeks. But PlayStation 2 shipped a million copies in the first day. Therefore, PlayStation must be 21 times more popular than Windows 2000. Right? 2.In the PR skirmish between Microsoft and RealNetworks over the latter's licensing the former's Windows Media , there's a great (if late) riposte from RealNetworks: adding the Windows product would "enable RealJukebox to support an additional two per cent of audio programming available on the Internet." If this is true, it looks as though Microsoft's claim to be "the most used multimedia player in US households" needs examining carefully. ®
