Sonny, I do not think Bill Gates is going to ever be willing to compromise on the ability to innovate and improve his products. Consequently, this case could go on for a long time as it gets appealed. I'm not an attorney, but a negative outcome for Microsoft on this point feels to me to be unfair and unjustified. It also appears not in the best interests of either the public or industry. Where does the US Constitution restrict the right of a company to innovate its products? Methinks we have another case of way too much government for our own good here. Justice ought to be concentrating more on corrupt government officials rather than successful business endeavors. I don't think I will forget about this when I next go to the polls. Too bad I only get one vote. Maybe someone will hear my voice though. Barry
