DragonFly,

I commend you!! Someone that actually understands what I am trying to say. People like Claude, Ed, and others on this board dont have a clue what MSFT is doing, they just like that the end justifies the means. And to make themselves feel better about it they play the "Im just a dumb investor and HEAR NO EVIL SEE NO EVIL" game.

You hit the nail on the head on how MSFT's illegal anti-trust practices stifle innovative thinking. The trick you mentioned is a common one for MSFT (saying they are getting into something and scaring the investment dollars from the small startups until they wither away and then not even releasing anything).

But Dragonfly, you will realize real quick on this board that the Lemmings will turn your posting around and focus on one or two words and then take it completely out of context. They dont want to hear that their cash cow is begets its winnings by illegal activity.

Sooner or later (and I believe its sooner because of the trial) MSFT's illegal practices will be caught and they will be punished for it.

The other good thing is that Claude promised he wouldnt respond. This is good, because we dont have to listen to another naive and totally misunderstoof posting from him.

Thanks for making me believe their are some smart people on this board.
