Brian,

Can you imagine the Japanese government taking Anti-trust action against Toyota for offering free CD radios in all their vehicles.

It's extremely unfair to all the CD makers - few have the volume Toyota has?

What it is - is a great value and marketing ploy.

Best of all it is a great deal to the buying public.

When the government took on Rockefeller he had cornered the railroads that shipped oil and unfairly imposed artificially high oil prices on the public.Microsoft has provided value at no charge - a completely different scenario.No consumer was gouged.

All strictly a market cruncher that had no place in the market.With it's removal - there should be positive benefit.

Bob
