He's working for NSCP. Would you be surprised that every lawyer on the MSFT payroll has the opposite opinion? No, you left out the most important quote... He said his stance was consistent with the views he expressed in his highly influential 1978 book, ''The Antitrust Paradox: A Policy at War with Itself.'' ''Having written a book I refuse to take a case that contradicts my book because that would be altogether too shabby,'' he said. ''And I won't.'' Besides, you've got to admit that having Bork on our side is a major coup, especially if you are familiar with his judicial outlook. I read one of his books a few years back... believe me, this is a major coup.

OK, even you MSFTies have to agree that Bill is just being a whiner here: Microsoft chairman says DOJ has always been against the PC industry cnnfn.com Gates spoke harshly about the government's actions when asked about the Justice Department's chances of winning antitrust measures against Microsoft. "They're trying to promote a reading of the law that would work against customers in a very big way," he said. "So I wouldn't give them a very big chance of slowing down what's made the PC industry great. These people never liked the PC industry, they've done everything they can to stop it and yet it keeps on growing."
