<< "...what is plainly one of this country's most innovative companies." >> 'Gorton called the DOJ lawsuits "a direct attack on the innovation in the American marketplace." Unfortunately, no one, not even the Microsoft employees present, could respond when James Love (director of Ralph Nader's Consumer Project on Technology) commented on Gorton's statement and asked the attendees to raise their hands if they could name a Microsoft innovation.'

Not to pile on or anything, but I used to say something like Microsoft must be free to imitate, er, integrate, um, intimidate, I mean, innovate! Innovate, yeah, that's the ticket. Microsoft must be free to innovate, and to tell everyone else, from Andy Grove on down, just exactly what to do with their innovations. Then there was my old favorite line from the early days, about defending the "integrity and uniformity of the Windows95 experience". The PR guys are always good for a laugh. Cheers, Dan.
