Yep, the DOJ ineptitude shows through once more as M$ continues to quash 
anythinhg that it feels is a threat or will hinder their play to dominate 
everything IT/IS.  This would be terrible if Google were bought out by Bill 
and Co,  

I wonder, is Google a public company?  I hope that those on the board don't go 
for the money - but if history and investors hold true this hope may soon be 
dashed.

I am gratified by the continuing decline in M$ stock value.  I hope that they 
continue to press their license programs.  I also hope they find that Windows 
Server 2003 is as much a let down as Unreal Tournament 2003 insofar as it was 
overhyped and a big disappointment.  I wager that within 6 months Server 2003 
will be exploited as everything else M$ and this will finally put to rest 
Gates claims about "trustworthy" computing.  

On the issue of Google,... well I just hope that Google see the need to remain 
independent over the need for a one time big buyout revenue grab!

Cheers, Curtis.
