is this the most damaging: "All the analyses have pretty much come
to the same conclusion, which is that Netscape is declining and Internet Explorer is gaining."

- listen, even though Kodak's film business is declining vis-a-vis Fuji, it doesn't mean Kodak is out of the film game. Likewise, even though Netscape is losing, it doesn't mean they're out of the picture either. And I really hope Judge Jackson doesn't fall for the Clintonista line of nonsense.

Re: NY Times article

Nothing about their emails are shocking--normal business practices and strategies--but unfortunately, that kind of "private" company strategy has never been by email before and used in a trial, so easily tracked and exposed, plus there's the novelty of skewering someone because of email messages. That's terrible for MSFT. Wonder why Gates didn't set a more careful policy on these particular "email" communications.

After reading the stories on the MSFT e-mails, I guess they lost some of their gains from earlier in the week. I just can't believe the people at Microsoft don't know how to use a telephone. They should hire someone from the telephone company to give a crash course. They remind of TV shows like, "America's dumbiest criminals". I don't think they have done anything wrong but a lot of them are dumb. I can't believe some of these people are very high up in MSFT's management. As soon as the trial started, all emails related to the trial should have been stopped at that point. You cannot plan your court strategy for the world to see.

I guess now they have to go back to--integration of browser into Windows is good for consumers and use the Windows95 ruling from the court of appeals.
