No shit, Larry. I agree completely. Our politicians may not be good at much, but one thing they are exceedingly good at doing is destroying viable businesses. If everything else fails, they simply redtape you to death. I have experienced it on a much smaller scale in my own business. God help you if they target you for destruction.

Larry,all.Here is a site of MSFTs previous run-ins with the feds sjmercury.com MSFT always seems to keep those imbeciles in the govt. from really slowing the money freight train they are driving. Only time will tell what the outcome of the current investigation will be, hopefully more of the same. My money is in MSFT because 1. I read articles about oracle, ibm, sunmicro getting together to try to figure out ways to stop them before it is to late 2. Ted Turner on TV about 2-3mo. ago saying something to the effect of " We are not going to let them CONTROL this market, we need to stop them before it's to late. 3. Seem to have just recently become the # 1 browser over netscape, another example of how they take over market's. 4. I've had msft ISP service and used msft explorer since going online 14 months ago (and at that time I was a total computer and tech novice) they have given me great service and made it easy for me. I like investing in products and services I use and like. 5. etc. etc.10 billion in cash, etc. Bill Gates etc. webtv etc. NT5 etc. Barney etc. the internet etc. etc. 6. I only bought my shares in 95 and here comes my second split. Just my opinion. Jim
