   I understand that, but that's one of the many arguments Microsoft used 
in its original antitrust case defense. Just clouded the issue.

  "Even as a longtime critic of the company, I must admit that
   Microsoft occasionally flirts with the truth. Well, perhaps 'flirt'
   is too strong a word. Let's just say Microsoft sometimes honks and 
   waves as it drives by her house."
