BlankMind, Toy - how do you explain the apparent inconsistency of going full-throttle after America's #1 company for doing nothing obviously illegal" There is nothing to explain until you can figure out what the Anti-Trust regulations are all about. You and the other MSFT cheerleaders are the only ones who think that MSFT is some innocent company. The majority of the industry players believe that MSFT is guilty of illegal business practices. But of course in your biased mind MSFT is not being illegal - just aggressive. But when you can look at MSFT with more objectivity then ask me a serious question that I can actually ponder and think about. Toy

>> and on overlooking obvious breaches of American securtiy by the Chinese commies? Haven't Loral and Motorola(among others) been getting them (Communist China) technology as well? Weren't a bunch of security clearances lifted by the adminstration so our tech companies could better sell stuff to the Chinese? The breach at Los Alamos is another, but related story I suppose. ********* So is Orin Hatch a communist? When other people start to play hardball, MSFT supporters seem to become whiners, themselves.... something about the shoe on the other foot and all of that. ********* In any case I will be amazed if MSFT continues to have the kind of control and influence over the small computer industry; the kind of success it has had until now. In the world of small computers, the Windows paradigm is rapidly becoming needless overhead. FWIW Andy
