<< We started out on the subject of whether MS could be sued for damages resulting from reliance on their software. The answer is that of course they could. As to whether they would ultimately be found liable, that can only be decided in a courtroom. >>

Give me a break. Next you will sue the auto makers for causing us to be too reliant on oil. Or maybe you want to sue GE for making us to reliant on electricity. They make lights, refrigerators, etc. and they do use electricity. Power does fail occasionally and you can't see in the dark, so why not sue the power company. The statement above is a disgrace. It's as simple as that.
