JCJ: Why aren't you intimidated by MSFT? According to DOJ and Jackson you should not be able to do what you are doing. Perhaps you should get a medal for this courageous step.

Well, thanks. It's mostly been made possible by developments in the last year to the Linux GUI and of course by the fact that the internet *is just a bunch of Unix services.

To be honest, I find it uproareously funny that Microsoft on one hand makes the outrageous claim that Linux is competition to them and on the other hand really *has competition from free *nix OS. Judge PJ says they don't though. Truly, there isn't a profitable company on the planet selling Linux, yet. So, I guess he's right. <g>

This whole DoJ thing, IMO has already performed it's 'remedy'. M$, by dragging it out even farther is nailing the final nails in their own coffin.
