Dole, Bork to fight Microsoft news.com Oh mgosh. Suddenly the role of Bork protege Randolph on the appeals panel looks a little uncertain. Bork's anti-Microsoft lobbying is new, however. Having gained a reputation as one of the more conservative and outspoken appeals judges in the nation's capital, Bork may try to argue that reining in the software giant is perfectly consistent with the free-market ideals that, as reported, are central to two of the three judges hearing Tuesday's arguments. Cheers, Dan.

Microsoft Bows on Opening Screen Options nytimes.com Well, a tiny bit, and it has nothing to do with today's court appearance. Of course. Just another random thing. "We made the decision based on feedback" from PC makers, explained Yusuf Mehdi, a Microsoft marketing executive. Right, as usual Microsoft "listens to its customers". Here, they are treating the OEMs with the courtesy and respect Microsoft is famous for. And it has nothing to do with legal problems. The company's channel bar, however, will still be part of Windows 98, just one click away from the first screen. PC makers want to be able to tailor Internet offerings to the interests of specific customers, forging closer relations with their customers and collecting a fee on the resulting online transactions for themselves instead of being forced to surrender that business to Microsoft. "The real issue is whether Microsoft will allow the PC makers to populate the channel bar with their own selections," said Ken Wasch, president of the Software Publishers Association, a trade group. Oops, there's that crummy old press, off selling advertising again. We know what the TRUTH is. Cheers, Dan.
