Re: " What if Chairman Gates agrees to whatever Jackson throws at him, but transfer the price distribution aspect of "fair price to all computer maker" to Microsoft Canada."

Anything is possible. I guess that's why the reports say the offer from MSFT:
"Government lawyers were reportedly carefully reviewing the proposal, described as technically complicated, late Friday."

"As the talks have progressed, Microsoft has agreed to more stringent examinations on these points, such as pricing audits, people familiar with the matter said."


That's enough for me to stay clear till details are know and understood. It just seems too easy to assume that MSFT will explode after a settlement? That's like easy cherry picking.

I don't think the DOJ spent the last two years to let MSFT call the shots two days before a harsh judge makes a verdict?

I don't like it, it sounds too easy? Maybe I'm wrong but I'm not willing to pay to find out.
