Exactly! It seems like a stupid argument for the government to put up in this case. In addition, the Windows 95 successfull appeal of Jackson's ruling tells MSFT it is OK to add the IE functionality in its operating system. We have a precedence in this case!! If Jackson chooses to ignore it, I bet the appeals court judges won't be too happy. I know this is supposed to be driven law but emotions will get in the way at both levels of court. BTW,I wonder if Jackson is still pondering sending the case straight to the supreme court bypassing other levels (there is way to do this). I doubt it though as the Supreme Court can send it back to go through the proper channels(thanks to the AOL/Netscape merger) as the urgency won't be there..
