Bill. CNBC asked today: Should GVT get involved in Silicon Valley? Connecticut Atty Gen. Blumenthal says yes. Silicon Valley says no. Maria interviewed Blumenthal and a Company CEO. This CEO said he does not like Msft too much but he does not believe GVT should go after a company just because it became a success and a fierce competitor as long as the consumer does not get harmed. A company should be able to conduct their business as they see fit. And if putting new things on a browser will make life easier and cheaper for consumers, more power to it. He said again that he is not fond of Msft but his company uses Msft's products because they are good and cheap. He says that the few cos. that cheered the GVT on in Msft's case would regret the day they did and most of them already feel that way now.
Go to CNBC.com and read the interview. It's better than my summary.

Here is an interesting article. Maybe SUN will be next? Even his good golfing buddy Jack Welsh does not think the GVT is right in their pursuit of Msft. He feels business should be able to thrive without GVT intervention as long as it does not harm consumers. And GE should know that big is better even though their NBC internet tanked in after hours. gg.
