< Somehow, Colbeth seems to perceive the problem was "free" IE, not Netscape. He was confused, right Reggie? You know better, just as you know better what antitrust law is supposed to mean, and everything else.>

Actually, Dan, the problem was an anemic contract. Do you think MSFT gave away IE for free to save 13 million dollars out of their 16 billion in revenues? There should have been a "per unit distributed" clause. Alas, there was not and I am sure they are wiser for the experience.
