Sorry, guys, although I think the Anti-trust investigation of Intel is all wet, I generally have high regard for Reno. And I think that the MS investigation is appropriate, given what Compaq reports transpired between MS and Compaq when Compaq wanted to put Netscape on Compaq computers (do it and we will cut you off completely from Windows 95).

MS needs to back down just a bit, stop REQUIRING box makers to take IE 4 and forbiding them from putting Netscape on their boxes. That at the least, even if they are allowed to continue GIVING away IE4.

As for the investigation of Intel, which I do think is all wet, isn't that an FTC investigation anyway (e.g., not part of Dept. of Justice, not in Janet Reno's kingdom to begin with).
