Again, MeDroogies, my original post said that I do not wish to give my opinions on the internet, because I feel that "ROFLMAO" isn't exactly open for debate.

So, there is more at work here than just MSIE...

The biggest problem with the DOJ is not the amount of market share the OS is allowed to have. The biggest problem is the integration of Office, Explorer, and many other programs that would allow Microsoft to monopolize the entire computer software industry.

Check the history of the court case of the DOJ vs. MSFT. Why spend money on Netscape and other programs when you can just use the MSOS?

IBM was DEMORALIZED?????? After 20 some odd years???? They were basically winning at every
turn, and you say they got DEMORALIZED?????

Check the US News and World Report issue with Bill Gates on the cover. I believe the title is "The Real Threat to Microsoft." In that issue, the CEO for IBM at the time of the anti-trust suit states that the reason for the fall of IBM was the demoralization that was brought upon them by the DOJ and the suit.

ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Ok.

Check the facts again, my friend.
PUHLEEEZE.

Read the article above and get the CEO's take. I don't believe everything I read, either, I guess...
