> MSFT to invest $5B in AT&T...in return...absurd? I thought I was getting out from under Comcast's commitment to Windows CE in return for a similar financial commitment, only to find AT&T liking the color of Bill's money as well. Just as the Japanese "bought" market share by dumping products in the US, Bill is squeezing out the threat of competition with the money he gained through a similar dominance in the desktop computer market. He's been video taped on a PBS documentary being excited and gleeful at the prospect of e-commerce "mini-fees". A set top box gateway is even more important to realize MS's "dreams" of revenue streams. Wonder what the Justice Lawyers are thinking?
