As usual, your links are to articles which are informative and an asset to the discussion here.

From the sound of the aricle, it sounds like DOJ thinks it will be better off if extrinsic evidence is not brought into the case.

But DOJ has a small problem if they are saying that extrinsic evidence should not be admissible to prove the meaning of the terms "integrated product" and "other product" in the Consent Decree: they're already using it. Go back and read the parts of the Decree that talk about Microsoft's conduct in treating IE and Windows as separate products. If that's not extrinsic evidence, I don't know what is.

On the other hand, I love the way Microsoft appears to be trying to avoid an inquiry into the NDAs with its brief's language about deciding the "scope" of the Order to Show Cause.

It looks like it is going to be a real dog-fight.
