Mike, that was a thoughtful response. However, I must respectfully disagree with the sentiments expressed in this part of your reply: "While it can be argued that the biggest threat is not the government action but industry trends, I think that we are at the precipice of a new kind of regulatory environment where behind the scenes political contributions, power/fame mongers like the Joel Kleins of this world, and people unwilling to take responsibility for their own education before brandishing a torch in the mob can swamp us in a transitionary period where we remain slaves for far too long to much of the technology that was supposed to make our lives better." I can understand that, as a MSFT employee, you would have strong views. However, surely you recognize that your employer's actions are responsible for what has happened. It is unbecoming and mistaken to take the tone you have taken: if you and your colleagues truly believe this is what the case is about, then MSFT really is in serious trouble. JMHO
