>>since NT was hardly mentioned in the DOJ proceedings and the finding of fact is done<< The case involves anything MS does with it's ill gotten gains. In fact, that is what the case is about. MS is a monopolist and they used the income from that monopoly to gain entre into other markets that they otherwise couldn't have, e.g. W2k. The admitted billions of dollars spent on W2k couldn't have happened except for their monopoly on the desktop. Therefore W2k and anything else MS has done is certainly in play whatever that could mean. As always, IMHO. I still highly recommend reading "The New New Thing" by Michael Lewis. The book is about Jim Clark, founder of SGI, Netscape and Healtheon, it contains the facts about the DOJ case from Netscape's POV. It is interesting, enlightening, shocking and hilarious. Two thumbs up way up. david
