The WSJ is of course one of those "objective" sources you agree with Reggie, as opposed to all those other "biased" press people trying to sell advertising. At least on this select excerpt.

The question of remedies is still fairly hypothetical, naive high school civics guy has no comment. But naive microeconomics guy still wonders how setting the market price of browsers to 0 fits in to old Adam Smith's invisible hand theory, or encourages "innovation". No fair recycling the old "Netscape was free too", or I'll really have to dig up that old Spyglass story. I'm sure the Mind of Reg(TM) has a clever answer for that, just like there's an answer for how the option rich Microsofties could stage an employee buyout if they actually had $30 billion in options, as opposed to the $90billion or so that commie rag Forbes cites them as having outstanding.

Cheers, Dan.
