Of course microsoft should be allowed to leverage windows to give away IE for free and put NSCP out of business.

After all this time, Netscape still holds a 55% market share of the browser business -- this is the dirty little secret that the anti-MicroSoft camp would prefer you didn't know -- Netscape is the monopoly power here. That the DOJ would step in on behalf of a monopoly power like Netscape is (to copy a phrase used by Bill Gates), beyond bizarre.

Only in America. Oh well. All this just makes for great publicity for Bill Gates, because it makes him look like the underdog. The American public has always been sympathetic with the underdog. In this case, ironically, the underdog is also the richest man in the US. -GG- Long live Bill Gates.
