Changing the desktop isn't changing the O/S. You must be technically
illiterate, as well as a bit unclear on the definitions of political
dispositions. Your remarks make me wonder if you are the sort of
person who calls themselves a conservative but is actually a
reactionary (which is NOT someone that is even more conservative --
there is more than one dimension here).

MSFT goes out of their way to make things like Netscape's browser
not work well (as if they would have to given how buggy their
crap is even when they try their best), but as far as I am concerned
that's MSFT's business. It would be better for their business in
the long run if they would just try to do a good job, but that's
between them and their stockholders (I'm no longer one, because I
am convinced that they are driving toward a brick wall whatever
happens in this case -- but it will take them a long time to hit
it, so don't start babbling about the efficiency of the stock
market).

Just to satisfy my morbid curiosity, are you completely against
anti-trust laws, or do you just not understand (my view, not yours)
what this case is about? For example, were you against the DOJ case
against IBM?
