What breakup ? It is time for the FTC and lawyers to realize that they are doing more harm for the computer industry and this country by filing nonsense lawsuit instigated by some lobbist hired by losing companies who could not compete in the market. Leave the MSFT and INTC alone, they have done more good to this country than all the people in FTC, all the lawyers, and the loser companies combined !

Len, The author of "Titan" is on the talk show circuit making a case for the similarity between Rockefeller and Gates. It's a provocative analogy. I'm actually almost done with Chernow's book. I agree that there are similarities between Gates and Rockefeller in terms of their accumulated wealth and individual drive. Microsoft and Standard Oil, however, IMO have only surface similarities. I don't believe that separating the applications group from the systems group or creating some type of communications group would create additional value. Larry
