Greg-- My but Billy G seems a bit wimpy to twist all those arms into buying MSFT. Those that do not want it will just be forced to spend their money,, even in Europe! WOW,, Billy is a real tough guy,,, some people are nuts,,, we know Neely is and Reno,,, what a few can do during an election year...

Greg, "EU Competition Commissioner Mario Monti said in Brussels that the complaints allege Microsoft bundled the operating system with other software in such a way that only its own products are fully interoperable, and that puts rivals at a disadvantage" So, what the Europeans are saying is that they would rather have an open competitive server industry in which servers compete solely on their merits as servers rather than their ability to support proprietary standards. Silly Europeans. Cheers, Norm
