of course for a perennial wannabe intel and microsoft look like they are the same kind. One thing they have in common is they are both winners.

reno and starr are similar to
the inquisition who put the witches in fire. what they really share across centuries is the illusion that one can use brute force to supplement one's lack of intelligence.

Dear Tenchusatsu: Well, since so much of this thread is now devoted to MSFT woes, I will throw my two cents worth in. I think that since nearly ALL if not all of MSFT's illegal monopolistic practices occurred AFTER they had signed a consent decree, that THIS time around the penalties and the restrictions will be FAR WORSE for MSFT.

Tench,
Let's face it, part of the reason why the government (both Fed and State) want so much blood right now is because Microsoft pretty much provoked them by violating the spirit of their original settlement. The convenient lapses of memory that Bill Gates experienced during his video testimony, along with the "fake" browser demonstration, sure didn't help matters any."

Good point. You don't want to give those FEDs a burning desire. Looked what happened at Waco.
