After an early win at the fights, The netscape bunny holds up his paws and is cheered for his early wins and gamblers eagerly bet on his next match. The door of the arena opens and a 500 pound gorilla hulks in, walks up to and enters the ring. He speaks to the bunny and asks him, "when you go to the can, does the sh*t stick to you're fur?"
"no", says the bunny.
The gorilla then picks up the bunny with one hand and wipes his *ss with him.

In the corners, gamblers shift their bets.

In essence Netscape makes money but has been shaken by the gorilla. This may haunt it and keep it from having high multiples for years, even as it enjoys financial success.

The linked funds to exclusive web access are being served up to the DOJ for dinner, and the DOJ might just choke on them.
You might think the MSFT would can the dumb arrogance, as it will be exposed and once angered the DOJ can be a 1000 pound gorilla.
