JE: Absolute Communist madness! Let's see then we can have the oligopolistic oil companies pool their resources and have a committee of commisars or "citizens" decide who pays what price for how much- markets be damned. As for comparing MSFT to a physical hard wirebound state approved monopoly there is no barrier to thought and that is the only barrier to the O/S of tomorrow. You act as if MSFT has a single wire to your brain. Linux says they are this very thing. Are the Finns smarter than the potential U.S. competitors- Hmmm? Notice Torvald did not spend his time at Comdex ranting over MSFT - he invited them to compete in Unix/Linux and MSFT might just do that - their version of Java was superior. By the way my local phone bill went up and since LD calls are discretionary - I was actually harmed by "deregulation" (actually reregulation) of that industry albeit large corporations benefitted.
