Microsoft adds conversions to standard calculator

Hi,
I'am a fan of www.onlineconversion.com for more than 2 years and am using your site on a regular basis.
Recently, I've found that micro$oft has released the next version of its calculator with support of conversions and named it: "Calculator Plus"

It is the free download currently and will replace the current one in the next Windows version (Longhorn).
So I'am starting to worry about the future of www.onlineconversion.com :'(
Are you planning to add more features(such as the support for units combinations conversions) to compete against Microsoft?
Best, Michael Chang
P.S. Sorry for my bad English - I'am from Germany - I do my best...

OnlineConversion.com will be ok. There are already dozens of conversion programs available and we're still up. Competition spurs interest.
We will still have our niche, as Microsofts conversion calculator converts just the basics. Though OnlineConversion will continue to grow and add new conversions.
