mozek,

Forget it. MSFT is going to lose this one. They already
lost the Java logo in court & SUNW is not trying to
bludgeon them like the DOJ. They're asking the court
to require MSFT to ship 100% Java or to let SUNW provide
for them to ship. I don't see the court having a problem
with that.

You can "read" the agreement any way you want. The code
is SUNW's IP & they demand compatibility as a requirement
for ALL licensees. MSFT FAILED, so MSFT can't legally
ship their product.

BTW: invective is appropriate when it is accurately applied.
In Gates' case, I was being charitable.
