Dan- The Beast wings is interesting. Most commentary suggests DOJ just touching up the two way split. Register suggests three way split waiting in the wings. Salesmanship says if the customers asks for the more expensive model you don't tell him he can't have it.
Lawyers are great advocates of cut and paste. I wonder if they'll pull it off. That way we don't have to go through it all over again when they embed IE into Office.

Here is a little more detail on a Warden/Jackson exchange:

Microsoft attorney John Warden told
Jackson that a breakup could not be
ordered without elaborate proof that what
Microsoft had done in the past directly
thwarted competition that would have
ended Microsoft's market-dominating
position.

Jackson sparred with Warden, referring to
his earlier findings that numerous Microsoft
actions had thwarted competition and
violated antitrust laws. The judge then
demanded to know what prior court
decisions required the proof Warden said
was necessary.

"There is no case that directly addresses
this point," Warden conceded.

"I didn't think so," the judge shot back.

Too bad Court TV doesn't do Anti-Trust. Guess I'll have to go read the transcript.
