This is exerpted from a letter from Congressman Jim Talent, Republican
Missouri second district. It was sent in response to my e-mail to.
1. Justice Department anti-trust allegations stem from bundling of browser.
2. Mounting evidence suggests that Microsoft's software bundling does not
constitute true anti-trust violation.
3. Netscape is the industry leading browser.
4. Netscape's profits have soared this past year.
5. Increasing numbers of browser companies are entering the market.
6. Computer companies and consumers are also benefiting (by receiving more
software at increasingly lower prices)
7. Microsoft does not have a corner on the web browser market.
8. Microsoft does not use that advantage to profit at the expense of
consumers.
9. Microsoft controls only 4 % of the software industry.
10. It is mystifying the dogged insistence with which Reno is pursuing the
Microsoft investigation.
11. I will closely follow these proceedings.
