Did you see what the Citizens Against Government Waste has to say about the MSFT vs DOJ Case?

Judge Jackson's ruling confirms that the government's case against Microsoft has been an inexcusable waste of tax dollars. "The Department of Justice has spent more than $30 million to prove that Microsoft is a tough competitor in a dynamic industry. I could have told them that for free," Schatz concluded.

edit: I see you already posted it. :-)

Also, from the above link:

For example, the judge argues that even Microsoft's research and development efforts could be viewed as anti-competitive. Judge Jackson wrote that while Microsoft may not be able to stop all innovation, "it can thwart some and delay others by improving its own products to the greater satisfaction of consumers." In other words, it is contrary to public policy and antitrust laws to improve consumer satisfaction.

What a farce this whole thing is. LOL!
