I do criticize MSFT when I feel they deserve it, but I rarely get the oppurtunity with all of the
MSFT bashing going on around here. Do you actually feel that the govt. is not perverting
Anti-trust law by coercing one company to distribute another company's product under the
auspices of helping the consumer. Both products are already freely available.

I agree that asking MSFT to bundle Navigator is too much. But this is just one alternative, among many, that the DOJ is providing. I'm pretty sure that this is not a sticking point in the failure to reach an agreement. It's just a point that MSFT (and you) likes to bring out and parade around to show how "unjust" the whole DOJ case is. I believe that the DOJ should never have even suggested this, since they never would have agreed to it, and it just gives ammunition to MSFT in their propoganda war. How would you have responded to me if they did not ask for this concession?
