We sometimes hear the refrain in these newsgroups, from some quarters, that
we shouldn't expect too much from WLM or some other "free" Microsoft
software because we are not paying for it.

....That we should buy Outlook for example if we want more.

But many of us see Outlook as slow, cumbersome and designed for business
use -- not personal use -- ergo no integrated newsreader.

We want a personal email client and newsreader -- a genuine successor to OE.

So, I say charge us for WLM, sell it to us -- as a superior, carefully honed
and developed Microsoft product, constantly upgraded and refined -- worthy
of the Microsoft name.

But don't produce a grossly inferior, botched product and then tell us we
shouldn't expect too much because it's free.
