which shows how M$ outrageously demonstrates it has not only learnt 
nothing about what the community expects of it being a good corporate 
citizen and to accept the principles of fair competition.  Uncle Bill 
can't stand competition.  He is paranoid about it!  So like a wild 
animal who is cornered he lashes out and is at his most dengerous.  He 
has only one approach when there is real competition - try to crush it! 
- by fair means or foul!

   Be sure that if eCommStation or anything else really challenges his 
monopoly he will try to "crush"!

   It was a disastrous mistake that the DOJ did not follow thru Judge 
Penfield's proposal that the company be broken up - to reduce its 
crushing weight!
