Msft

Msft is probably prepared for any and all outcomes. Their most valuable resource, besides the $15 billion dollars they have banked give or take a few billion dollars, is their intellectual capital which is priceless. I believe that separating the company into three different parts would create two dominate firms and we can all speculate whether or not they would stay in the online internet business a business which has not been very profitable to date.

There are many reasons why Msft opposes government intervention one being the freedom to compete unimpeded. Let's all remember that the business of business is business. Isn't that what this country is all about. Msft has been wildly successful...nothing wrong with that.
