Hi James,

Actually, I think it's just about the best PR Novell could hope to get. A slam from Microsoft is about equal to having the President of the United States pin a medal on you. Free advertizing of the product on Microsofts web site and a chance, first hand, for their customers to understand why the DOJ is after them. Every glitch that any customer ever called a Microsoft tech about will be the first thing they think of when they see that. Rebellion will be the natural reaction. If the department of Justice was even thinking about giving Microsoft a break this will slam the door on them. Billy shot himself in the foot. That was stupid. I wonder if someone slipped Gates whatever it is they have been drinking in Utah?

Regards,

Don
