Hence, iMac sales are huge and over %40 of the purchasers are either first time PC buyers or people switching from Windows. In that case the trial should be over. Monopoly, what monopoly? I think we will see this once we get to the remedy stage(maybe we won't even get there if the judge is wise). You can forget about forcing MSFT to license Windows or split into "baby bills". Those ideas are dead!

<<<Have you ever met a non-programmer who liked Microsoft software? Ok, any who have ever used another OS, such as Mac OS who prefer Microsoft? The reality is, for normal people, (such as my non-computer friends and my parents) they hate windows, and when given a chance, switch>>> The hell they are. Yes, I meet and deal with on a daily basis non-programmers who like Microsoft software. The reality is, for normal people , (such as my non-computer friends and parent) they love windows, and given a chance would not switch and have no plans on switching. I know more people leaving Apple than buying them. I do not know one person who has brought the Imac. Thank You JK
