Srini, Re: > "At least we're getting to the heart of Justice's hidden industrial policy. Its larger agenda is to promote Netscape as an alternative "platform" to the Microsoft operating system." <

You have a very interesting outlook on this subject. Do you think perhaps the government not only is giving Netscape publicity but also Windows98? After all there is really no major significant changes in this product. Without the government making such a big deal out of a browser/operating system merg. Now why would they want to do this?

My spin on the government's agenda is they have no laws that they can try and regulate the INTERNET with -too international. However they are trying longer term to get a regulatory hold on the companies they know will have tremendous effect on this hugh frontier. Government regulators want to regulate from the top down. The INTERNET in the long term will be the top and one way to regulate it will be through companies like Miscrosoft, Intel, Cisco, Ibm, Sun just to name a few.
