The light is on msft now, but the tables will turn. DOJ will be shown to not have a clue about software, msft will make a small concession or two, and that'll be it. Can any of the ranting jackals out here explain HOW navigator was actual competition to Windows? At best it could theoretically happen, someday. At worst, and more likely, it was more vaporware hypesters trying to talk their stock up. Think for a second what you're asking for: You DON'T want internet capabilities in your OS. You DO want to pay extra for this and get it from a small company that will NOT be responsible for integrating it to anything. In a few years this'll be looked back at as another funny time in the legal history of technology. First, Apple thinks that it can own overlaping windows. Now, netscape thinks its competition is going to ship it's product for them, and they got they govt to go to bat for them. (eventually this will be explored in the media) great theatre, very entertaining indeed. -Kevin ps. maybe we'll even get a highly publicized trial ala OJ and pictures of Bill Gates with Aliens on the covers of the trash press.
