MSFT is not a monopoly. MSFT is fighting for the freedom to innovate. The DOJ action amounts to an attempt to set the stage for government meddling in high tech. They have their fingers either thru regulations or government/quasi-government bodies all over banking, the railroads, the auto industry, the pharmaceuticals, utilities, energy, mining, farming and many other industries. They want the same type of input and control over the techs. I don't want the government telling high tech companies what they can or can not put in a product. I don't want the government setting pricing for high tech companies. I don't want the government... I do want the government to start paying off the national debt. I want them to address things like taxes and social security and medicare in a rational matter since we are saddled with them. Those types of things are the role of government, not telling me a consumer that I have been harmed by MSFT. Mr. Gates and MSFT are fully within their rights to reject anything that the DOJ states and sends forth. We have an advesarial system of justice and MSFT is exercising its legitimate rights under the law. Any cries by the DOJ and people like you that are upset because MSFT will not nuckle under are laughable. Regards,
