>>> 1. the futility of trying to overregulate this industry. 2. There never was a case. 3. Courts are to slow and cumbersome to even begin to address technology issues. <<<

I agree with points 1 and 3. I disagree whole heartedly on point 2. MSFT clearly has a monopoly in the OS market.

- The DOJ case is even more absurd b/c the anti-trust laws are to protect consumers; not other businesses. This was spelled out some months ago in the Wall Street Journal

- Given Jackson's ruling that no harm has yet come to consumers, then it doesn't even make sense to rule against MSFT, let alone have brought the case this far

- Can't wait for Nov '2000 to vote all those stinkin, lousy Democrats out of office.
