Most of the time, especially when the government messes with the private
sector, in the ridiculous ruling against Microsoft. Especially
considering the anti-trust laws are from the 1920's or 30's, which has
no bearing in the marketplace today. It is a hideous example of
government being totally out of control. I wonder if they are going to
go after LEGO, for being a monopoly of building bricks, too. I will
never forget when Janet Reno, and the prosecuting attorney were up to
the press conference, smiling, almost in sheer joy announcing this
verdict. These people don't even know how to use computers half the
time, but somehow they can find Microsoft guilty? I don't think so!
