To All: AOL pondering its post merger options. One of those being considered is"...Get out of the software business. The new company will be more of a media company than an Internet company, says ING's Squali. Software will no longer be as relevant to its strategic mission. The enterprise software unit, acquired as part of the Netscape deal, might be sold to AOL's partner, Sun Microsystems, in that transaction. Squali says the unit is "dead wood" that saw no growth in the last quarter." It is interesting to note that one of the great pillars of NSCP is considered "dead wood". What more can be said to awaken the good judge to the fact that NSCP was lucky to be bought out by AOL . Once again therefore it must be concluded that NSCP was never worth much in the first place and therefore there was no harm to it wrought by MSFT (as if that has anything to do with harm to the consumer.)JFD
