IACT `CONNECTIONS`



Some of you already have helped IACT to make new connections. "Thank you!" for setting up links on your Web sites, sending e-mail and forwarding our announcements. Thanks to Ed, who was lost for days in the IACT Research Center where he explored OSs from all over the known universe, and who continues to share his new discoveries with the IACT Webmaster.

Thanks as well to all IACT friends and members who are supporting our Action projects and letters! Our current/ongoing efforts are the Testimonial Project and the Freedom of Choice Project, both linked below.

-PLUS- IACT's Action Projects!

Freedom of Choice Petition (Action Project #4), June 1999
The Freedom of Choice Petition was designed to give consumers like you a chance to make your voice heard by the computer manufacturers! Send a direct, clear message to those companies that you refuse to pay any longer for Microsoft software that you won't use and don't want. Demand that they at least give you a proper refund, and that they stop pre-installing [tying or bundling] Microsoft products with every new computer.


The Discovery Project (Action Letter #3), 27 Jan 1999
The AltaVista/Compaq web-based 'Discovery' service is touted as a "public" and "free" service to the entire Internet community. However, this AltaVista service is not a truly open and free Internet tool, and many of us web-surfers are being denied access to it. Find out why, and help in our efforts to protect the public's access to the Internet.


The Testimonial Project (Action Project #2)
Inclusive testimonials from consumers, programmers and business owners all over the world, giving evidence that the Microsoft monopoly is threatening our basic rights to choose and use technology. This project has no deadline-- it is ongoing from October 1998 to the present. All members of IACT as well as the general public are invited to send in their testimonials for posting here.


Action Letter #1 , 6 May 1998
Response to assertions of 26 technology companies' complaint to the U.S. Dept. of Justice, via Microsoft press release of April 30th, 1998.
