     That's a big part of it for me too, but I also don't mind people
debating their positions as long as it doesn't go on 'adnauseam'.  The
effects of M$'s monopoly power (and particularly how they used it)
encompasses a whole slew of products and technologies, so I believe
including those issues in the discussion is 'on topic' too.
