This will be fun to watch, though not as entertaining as the drawn out legal process would have been. I'd guess one thing for sure, after getting smoked on the previous wimpy consent decree, Joel Klein et. al. will be very, very careful and precise on terms and conditions, definitions and all that. Cheers, Dan.

Bearded One. < Will Microsoft promote Netscape in some very public way as part of their DOJ deal? > As in the debacle of the aapl 150mm? My answer is no.For 2 reasons. It's too personal, as in genuine enmity has been unleashed by netscape and friends assisting or provoking? -the DOJ nightmare upon the msft. And netscape is still capable of doing to msft the unthinkable, that unpardonable crime--competition at the desktop, God forbid! ( the OS monopoly, eyeball/portal share, developer rivalry etc.,assisting rival Linux....getting orders from OEM and maybe influencing the price charged for windows to the OEM? It just gets more vengeful and perhaps more covert until the referees intervene in a permanent, effective way.
