John,

Thanks for posting this information. It's the most interesting thing I have read on this board in weeks!

MSFT will win this in the courts. We need to have patience but I firmly believe the company will prevail.

John

... McNealey is on the board of GE, and Faber and all CNBC staff is very aware of this ...

This explains much of CNBC's coverage.

Cheers, PW.

Microsoft may be getting more "unbiased" opinion from sources it has
bought and paid for than we realize. A quote from the above reference:

"Microsoft also is a "significant member" of the Association
for Competitive Technology and Americans for Technology
Leadership. Jonathan Zuck, who runs the groups, said he
is under no obligation to identify his contributors, though a
spokeswoman acknowledged that Microsoft has given at
least $100,000 in dues."

Personally, I take all press releases from think tanks about
the Microsoft/DOJ issue with a grain of salt
