"The case involved Netscape Communications
 which now belongs to the AOL group. 

"As part of the agreement, Microsoft will give a new
 royalty-free, seven-year licence of its browsing
 technology to AOL. 

"And it will provide technical information to AOL 
 to ensure that its products run effectively on
 Microsoft's Windows operating system."

Effectively?  Analyze that!

Question:  should we really freakin' believe the last
sentence?
