General/Public Announcement
from: Associates of the "Freedom of Choice Project"
to: Users, programmers, resellers of all platforms
e.g. OS/2, Linux, BeOS, BSD, DOS/Windows, EPOC,
Solaris, Unix, Mac...
The Freedom of Choice Project is an organized team effort to put an end
to Microsoft's exclusive distributorship with the PC makers such as
Compaq, Dell, Gateway etc.. We want you to be part of that team--to
help us stop the preinstallation [bundling or tying] of Microsoft
software on new as well as used PCs. All of us who rely upon computers
suffer losses in time, money and even creative spirit due to the MSFT
monopoly of software as well as all the "Windows optimized" hardware
such as modems, scanners, and printers.
If you're tired of fighting over compatible device drivers,
peripherals, and the basic operating system, then join the Freedom of
Choice Project right now. It's designed for you, regardless of which
platform(s) you prefer, regardless of whether you're a beginning user,
an expert programmer or a computer dealer.
Take this opportunity to add your voice to the growing public uproar
against coerced use of Microsoft products! Don't wait another moment.

Choice project.
Sincerely,
