The latest rumor is that the feds want the browser group to go with the apps group but the OS group to have rights to the browser code too. These are interesting times. Are they going to tell the employees where they should work ? If not, I suspect that all browser group employees will decide to work for the same broken up part. Also, what incentive is going to be there for any of these employees to stick around in the broken up company ? Their worth would have been shattered by the justice department with no hope of a quick turnaround. Would they really cooperate with this court order ? I think that MS employees will be like cuban plantation workers with the plantation being run by the feds.
