The guy interviewed has really lost the entire reason for the
case.  He went immediatly off on a tangent regarding Unix 20
years ago, and suggested that this was the tail end of the
current situation.  Damm I wish I would get a call on one of
those shows.  Microsoft got its position because of its heavy
handed monopoly position.  this guy seems to think microsoft
got where it is because customers wanted to buy Microsofts
products!!!!  Customers had no choice!!!
