OT MS Trial: I am not sure whether this speculation by MSNBC and CNBS (as they are paid or controlled touts of Microsoft) talking with an unknown computer maker to make a PC without MS windows software. Is it a pure coincidence with the pathetic performance by Microsoft teams (look at the MIT guy getting $800/hour to conveniently omit relevant documents and contradict himself from his own writings etc.) and their lawyers as the trial ends today? Or there any serious substance to it. Is it a new threat to Microsoft? Is it not the same stuff Apple has been trying for years, and Oracle has been dreaming about Network computers? IMHO, the whole performance by the Microsoft (from Bill G to their legal teams and those illustrious expert witnesses) team in this trial is like a thief trying to depend in court while he/she was caught in a video camera while stealing from some body. -Nat
