BEATS THE DEVIL!!... As in Microsoft today won a big victory in court today against the GUV'MINT. An appeals court overturned a ruling that prevented Microsoft from requiring computer makers who use its operating system to also use its Internet browser. In a broad ruling, the appeals court decided 2-1 that a lower court made both procedural and substantive errors in imposing the injunction. (Love that legalese ... especially when it's testifyin' for the good guys!) This will make the DOJ and states' case more difficult. Saw Bob Herbold, MSFT's COO, he was all smiles. MSFT was up nearly $5 points, to $100.75--an all-time high. Hey, Joel Klein, you better buy some stock baby. Or your kids are going to hate you!!
