From: "Paul Ranson" 

I'm concerned with progression in computing. The legal actions against MS
haven't benefited users at all. That makes the law an ass. It needs to be
said.

All the spin you post here, the stuff that 'hurts' MS is all about actual
competition, the Anti-Trust actions haven't enabled that competition,
they've benefited entrenched commercial interests.

That's my opinion. You may support the misuse of law to benefit one
commercial interest against another, that's your opinion, but it's rather
sad.
