++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Microsoft also rejected a proposal by the states that Microsoft develop a version of its popular Microsoft Office software for the Linux operating system, people familiar with the talks said. The states argued that the development of Office for Linux would give a boost to the upstart competing operating system and blunt Microsoft's ability to use Office to gain control of the market for operating systems for servers, which run networks of computers. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ What the heck is this ? Do those lawyers have any clues how the high tech industry works ? States lawyers want MS to help dig its own tomb ? Well, I think MS should agree on the other hand to do this only so that it works ONLY on Windows. <s>
