Alok: I disagree. McNealy is right on.If they forced them to innovate instead of buy and BS we all would be winners (and guess what so would MSFT). Splitting up OS and applications is rather arbitrary and gray and I believe to be unfair. Scott's approach is fair, force them to innovate which really just becomes consistent with their PR and advertising speal about innovation. It's time to hold MSFT accountable for the PR and advertising statements they vomit out (i.e. innovation). I also believe that we would have better quality producsts (how can one get software products of less quality than MSFT's anyway)(and cheaper) if MSFT would have been disallowed from purchasing many of these companies. McNealy nailed it and by the way his educational background at Harvard was related to anti-trust issues.
