Gee, that's harsh.

The DOJ sure is on top of this one. /sarcasm

So MS only need drag their feet another two years and they're through? Small added cost of business while the remedy was never really in force. Isn't that like counting a guy's time in court as time served? Why not start the timer after they're found to be in compliance?

We must look like the collective idiot to the attorneys maneuvering through these cases.

So, are you one of those guys that complain when Microsoft is slow to release products, or those that claim that more control and oversight should be introduced?
Or both?
This is b.s....Mortis9 said so....

<sarcasm> How can this be? This has to be b.s....right? I mean... an authority no other than Mortis9, said that Microsoft is not operating under any antitrust provisions. Said all they did was pay a fine and that was it and that there is no more government oversite Microsoft. How can this be happening? What's going on? Future Guy says that they're not even a monopoly at all. What is this? </sarcasm>
