What a bunch of Bullshit
"Perhaps the most controversial remedy proposed by the states envisioned Microsoft being forced to sell an "unbound" version of Windows -- one free from additional programs such as a browser and media player that are referred to as middleware -- so that PC makers and end users could replace those programs with ones from competitors.
In a dramatic reaction to that proposal, Microsoft Chairman and Chief Software Architect Bill Gates testified in April that the company would be forced to pull Windows from the market if that particular remedy was accepted by Kollar-Kotelly
Removing such middleware from Windows would cripple other aspects of the operating system, such as the Help program, Gates told the court. Because the proposed remedy said an unbound version of Windows must be a functional equivalent to the full operating system, minus the removed middleware, Gates said there would be no way Microsoft could satisfy the provision -- forcing the company to stop selling Windows to avoid violating the remedy. "
First of all Why the fuck a browser and a Media player MUST be so tightly tied up with the OS? And for real, who the fuck thinks that their Help system is helpfull? All the times that I clicked on Help, I just got some stupid messages.
A slap on the hand. Thats what they got.
Yet once again this year, big Companies in America have their way.
Yet one more time those who generate big money get away with everything, while our prisons are over-populated with people that got the slammer for just smoking weed. Way to go!!!!!!
Capitalism will get rid of this fucking Virus though called Microsoft, simply because Linux is hammering down on them fast and hard. And Microsoft wont get eliminated from the "top ranks" simply because the top ranks are fucking corrupt, but from the bottom ranks. From the consumer.
They are abusing their power and that will bite them in their ass.
Law and Power for the people by the people you fucking pricks that live "upstairs" and dont know your head from your ass.
