I hope they don't get a dime out of our MSFT!!! They are leaches. I don't think they have a chance in hell of blocking Win98. This is politics and saber rattling...

On the good side, this had already help curb MSFT's heavy handled dealings with others, so in the long run, it may have put MSFT on notice that there are limits to what they can 'legally' do.
