If you read what the judge said, he indicated that he wanted evidence from both sides -- DOJ *and* MSFT as to whether the "uninstall" he performed was really an uninstall or not. Although I have no basis for judging it on a legal basis, it does seem like he should have gone about it in a different way. As it is, it looks like some sort of publicity stunt.

Reggie,

"If that is the case, he should have never went public with an unscientific, undocumented experiment that went against the favor of MSFT. He definitely should not have commented on it."

It was my impression this experiment was demonstrated to the Judge in his courtroom where everything is a "matter of record"; public record no less. Being a Windows fan maybe the concept of an open environment seems foreign or alien to you.

Cheers,

Norm
