Exactly right on the GOVT. This does not hurt MSFT - but gives the govt right to put foot in the door of regulating the computing industry. Perhaps before a little guy could win in the marketplace with a superior product - but now govt regulation getting a foothold in will ensure only those that control the govt will keep the reigns of power - well who controls the govt my friends? Big money. Standard oil all over again - MSFT is just too big to be competitive anymore - bill gates has been preaching this - past few years prove it - a breakup with govt regulation will only make his power stronger as it did for every breakup in our past - standard oil - at&t - history repeats itself.
