subject: Which Is The Best?

 [ Quoting Rogier Meurs to Scott Little ] 
 RM>> JavaScript and VBscript scriptable desktop.
 SL> It's a lot more than that.
 RM> It is a lot more, but I was trying to point out that Java IS taken
 RM> serious by MS. The Memphis desktop has also embedable ActiveX
 RM> components, so it's not Java only. But JavaScript is there.
Hm.. does too. My desktop is already Active :)
Now all I have to do is learn JavaScipt, ActiveX & VBScript and I'll be able
to customise my desktop. At least, until MS release their desktop editor.
 RM> Maybe this is comparable to what IBM/Apple have in mind with OpenDoc.
OpenDoc is all but abandoned by both sides.
Regards,
