The code such a mess now, M$FT may even welcome it When was the last time you looked at it? I have to say, your posts are so full of personal bias, Sun propaganda, and BS that any real information you might have to contribute can only be separated by those who already know it. Is spamming this board part of Sun's marketing? Mike

In my mind M$FT has to be restrained from using it's O/S to leverage its applications. cheryl, did you read my post to JC? Message 13890155 Ya know, JC, and I'm just noodleing here, the DOJ must have spent upwards of 90 Million dollars, all told, of taxpayer money so far, and THERE WAS NOT ONE WITNESS, NOT ONE SCINTILLA OF CREDIBLE EVIDENCE EVEN PRESENTED AT THE TRIAL THAT MS HAS SECRET TRILATERAL COMMISSION API'S. Pretty strange why the Government left this out of their case, huh? I have not reviewed the daily transcripts, perhaps you might find something that alters this perception. . It would be easier to just expropriate Windows and give it to a committee to maintain and leave M$FT intact. If windows is so bad, why don't the you geniuses at SUNW just write a better and cheaper one, instead of trying to steal somebody else's? I could be more eloquent, but this is the bottom line, isn't it?

--I believe that M$FT is guilty of anti-trust violations and should be punished. However, I also agree with Alan Buckley that the punishment should point toward corrective action and not be punitive in nature.-- oh you're just like the 'big sister' i never had. -Some of the benefits of the lawsuit have already come to pass: more freedom in the desktop market for competitors and the advent of thin-clients.- everything which is happening in the marketplace now would have happened anyway with or without the doj action. -In my mind M$FT has to be restrained from using it's O/S to leverage its applications. It would be easier to just expropriate Windows and give it to a committee to maintain and leave M$FT intact.- more communist garbage... for the 'common good,' right? i've got news for you missy, there's no such thing as the 'common good.' -The code such a mess now, M$FT may even welcome it.- -so now you claim to have seen all of their source code, and that you understand it as well?- andy
