Daniel et al,

Beat you to the punch ... this has got lovely stuff:

biz.yahoo.com

Urowsky should try out for a leading role in Alice in Wonderland ... after a pointed 'exchange' with the judge about whose language they should have followed in deciding how to comply, the judge's actual order or DOJ comments, .... "Jackson said repeatedly the company should have looked at his language instead (well duh). He finally asked if MSFT had given any consideration to seeking clarification from him." Shortly after this we have Urowsky's piece de resistance: "It is the government and not MSFT that is the cause of any confusion that might have been created in the mind of the court and the view of the public." I'm sure the judge appreciates being told (respectfuly bien sur) that he's confused. For this statement, Urowsky earns a place in the Alice in Wonderland Hall of Fame.

Joking aside, I'm surprised how lame MSFT's defence is. Apparently the judge can rule from the bench at the conclusion of the hearing or issue a written opinion later. I would not be surprised if he does the former and finds ol' MSFT in contempt. Wonder if he'll go for the $1 million per day fine .... retroactive to Dec. 11 of course!!

regards, Mike
