Hi Dan,

All in fun, nothing personal. But honestly, I think that even you could admit that occasionally you get a bit, um, repetitive? :-)

Re: Armey. I don't know that much about him, but completely agree with his stance on MSFT. Isn't he also in favor of a flat tax or national sales tax to replace the current tax code monstrosity? If so, I'm with him on that one as well.

As far as anti-trust laws are concerned, I agree with the Cato guy. Is MSFT in violation of what's on the books? Maybe so and maybe not. I do indeed wish the debate would shift to the law itself. Though we are diametrically opposed on this issue, airing the pros and cons here and, more importantly, in congress, would be a productive endeavor, IMO.

Sorry if I appeared less than civil in my post last night. My portfolio took a six figure pounding as a result of Intels announcement and that was definately not a mood enhancer. :-(

Regards, JB
