[Rant on...  One time only...]
If you don't like it, I suggest that you take your complaints to:

1) Micro$oft - The refused to allow IBM to license/ship Windoze95
unless IBM stopped preloading OS/2 and the Lotus SmartSuite.  [Ref from
the U.S. District Court "Findings of Fact" available on request.]
   
2) The US DoJ for not fully prosecuting the case that they WON and not
insisting on remedies that will inhibit future illegal activities by
M$.

3) The states that, after the DoJ gave up/in, tucked their tails in and
went home.  [All except MA and WV.]

[Rant off...]

Sorry, but this is a real sore point for me too.  I just feel that, if
blame is placed, it should be placed on the guilty parties.  If anyone
wants the page reference in the court document, please send it OFF-LIST
so we do not clutter the real purpose of the list.  Or, you can go to
the court's site and download the entire document.
