Then why defend MSFT monopoly. No Gobalstar will not be a monoply, but one of many enities competing in the open marketplace. Teledesic is touting $.10 a min. Utilities in the US are going to be de-monopolized. Yet they were an entity that was a controlled monopoly, having to go before commissions to get a rate increase. Commissions normally control by the peoples vote. Which brings us back to MSFT, which is cornering the market. The very same company that is lashing out at telecommunication companies screaming that they are monoplies fighting to keep there legacy systems and slowing down MSFT pusuit of make Gates the first trillionaire, so he can do soo much good when he dies. Bullocks. Why does he fear Java? Becasue it attacks and gives a viable option to the leagacy Windows system, thats why. What is Gates & Co. doing, trying to kill it off or alter it to work with Windows only. He wants to prove his claim about giving his money when he dies, then put his shares into a trust for those institution now. Put restriction on the sale of that stock by those worthwhile entity. He won't do it. He nothing but a greedy geek egoist.
