<Well thank goodness the government isn't saying Boeing can't make the planes *too* good. What's your point?>

The point is the DOJ is saying that MSFT is makingt the OS "too good". they are actually saying that they want MSFT to DEGRADE the OS by taking functionality out of it. Imagine, the FAA saying to Boeing, "We want you to take all of the bathrooms, refrigerators and radar systems out of your planes because you are distorting the definition of an airplane. All we want are wings, an engine and landing gear."
