DOJ-Microsoft agreement

[JimH]

So what does everyone think about the DOJ-Microsoft agreement? Is it great? Is a sellout?

I think I'll go along with this guy, it's a SELLOUT!

Ok, I have to take partial responsibility for this! :'(

I am a Bush voter, and this is pretty much the sole reason why Microsoft has gotten off the way they have. Gore prolly would have pressed it to them, but it wasn't worth the other things that Gore would have done.....

I think this is EXTREMELY wrong, and I hate the fact that it is happening. I hope that someday our government will wake up and realize what is going on here. Fat chance, but that is what I hope.

LOL ;D
I think The Register(http://www.theregister.co.uk) summed it up quite nicely yesterday:

How about calling the M$/DOJ Settlement a "Seattlement"?
So simple, and so true. And universally applicable, too. DeeKay, we'll henceforth adopt the word Seattlement for any kind of shame-faced, gutless cave-in.

Hey Now! I live in Seattle!

Oh wait, I completely agree with that statement! :-/

Yes, you can tell that I want to get as far away from this satanic empire as possible, hey Jim, or anybody for that matter, although Jim lives near Comdex, got a spare couch? :
