Google executives said they have no plans to build a browser and downplayed threats from Microsoft's new advertising system and plans to bundle search into Vista.
Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer vowed to 'kill' Google in an expletive-laced, chair-throwing tirade when a senior engineer told him he was leaving the company to go work for Google, the engineer claimed in court documents made public on Friday.
The new millennium was the year Microsoft was ordered to bifurcate, dot-coms tanked on Wall Street, WorldCom's Bernie Ebbers saw his merger mania capped and Napster scared the recording industry nearly to death. 2000 was a cascading waterfall of events that ended any doubts about the Net's ability to change the way we think, learn, play and do business.
