Gates announces Microsoft.Net

Though Microsoft is being told by federal regulators that it must de-integrate, or perhaps disintregate, Bill Gates has defiantly announced the ultimate Web/software integration. The entire MS product line is being renamed with .net suffixes, reflecting a change of the company's philosophy away from selling operating systems to selling products that will be used on the network. Gates compares this change in company philosophy to the change from DOS to Windows and says that it is a "bet the company thing."
