RE: ..."it would still be right to stop a monolith from using gestapo business tactics." This is the argument of a loser. MSFT is where they are because they are tough competitors who think strategically and understand how to capture market share better than the competition. RE: "IE is free..." Gilette gives their razors away so you will buy their blades. RE: "Compaq has the right to put any browser they please on their 'puters without being strong-armed by Micromafia hitmen." The consent decree and the bundling issue only applies to separate products, not integrated functions. IE is an integrated function. RE: "But the clear intent is to push NN out of business-not competitive co-existence in the same market and that's just plain wrong." The nature of capitalism is competition. As a result there will be winners and losers. RE: "Netscape has a right to be in the market. This right gets stepped on when a company who can afford to absorb losses gives away the same widget." The nature of capitalism is competition. As a result there will be winners and losers. JD
