First of all, we pretty much do know what went on. I'm pretty sure that 'publish' remedy with probably a change to M$'s OEM contracts would have wrapped it up. --- Now, to achieve the same thing, we (as taxpayers) have to go through this giant 'break up' process. Why? Probably because M$ would have spun huge outrage at Janet Reno and the ATF coming in to confiscate M$'s "property". An outrageous and unprecedented act that any red blooded American could be convinced to oppose. At least a breakup has precedent. AT&T investors and consumers did well financially after such a 'break up'. That's it in a nutshell I think. -JCJ
