John, How will opening up MSFT O/S source & api's be bad for the company, employees, & shareholders? Just what "punishment" would be acceptable, John, nothing??? If MSFT wants to fight because they don't believe they have done anything wrong, they can certainly do that. IMO, however, THAT is not going to help the company, employees, & shareholders at all. MSFT has a PR problem with all this stuff, their brand is damaged & every day they "fight" it gets damaged even more. How good is that??? BTW: Ballmer is going to have a tough time renting Office for $150/year over the internet if StarOffice & others are free of charge.
