What do ya'll (yea, I'm Southern,) think of this for a defense stratagy for MSFT against JAVA. They say, OK, you win. We will pull all Win98 off the market. Win 95 won't be availible either. No MSFT OS of any kind.

Dell Gateway and 90% of the box makers can't ship computers because they don't have an OS. The mutual fund manager, which own MSFT, DELL and the other over priced momentum stocks, immediately sell because obviously you can't sell computers without OS. The market tanks big time. 401K shares collapse. General panic. The masses scream, the polls are taken showing 90% of the people want the suit dropped. Since we run on polls based upon the current Clinton crud, the courts have no choice but to fold. MSFT wins and wins big. No one would ever touch them again. Gates is victorious by using his monopoly power as it should be used, to crush his opposition and corrupt the government to his will.

A little tongue in cheek.
