Bill,

I think you have a good idea how the monoploy might be worked out. If BG comes to this conclusion 'early on' as opposed to 'later on', I believe he could deflate the DOJ by doing some 'splitting' as a pre-emptive effort. It would be easier to work out the problem if he started now rather than waiting for the DOJ to force the issue.

As for IBM, you are correct, RENT, RENT, RENT!

Ken

Sounds more like a de facto success story to me.
