I have an ActiveX desktop. Very promising. It will definatly be a hit amongst
the people who use GUIs all the time.

Microsoft isn't forcing anyone to do anything. You should know that, you 
aren't
using MS products (or so I gather). MS just happen to take someone else's
idea, make it better, and market it more successfully.
