Microsoft Case Enters Crucial Penalty Phase

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the nervous-goalies dept.

An Anonymous Coward points out an article from Joseph Menn's in the Los Angeles Times which begins: "Microsoft -- Nine states waging a landmark antitrust battle against Microsoft Corp. are preparing to venture into territory that has been barely visible during the past years of legal slogging: the future." This delves slightly into ways in which the states in legal conflict with Microsoft would like to see Microsoft constrained legally going forward.

    If you're as sick of this All Anti-Microsoft News For Losers crap with such insightful phrases as "Las Angeles" as I am, and only care about discussing and reading about Linux news, try my friend's site at monolinux.com.

    Yes, I realize this is whoring a bit, but I'm just sick of this shit. At least we have useful discussions. And generally, we post stuff a couple DAYS before Slashdot does, if they even DECIDE to post a god damn Linux story once in awhile.

    I think we should take the best suggestions from rotten.com pictures and the linux kernel mailing lists and make a slashdot poll about it.

    You could always try monolinux like everyone else is doing now.

    Ever wonder why some stories on /. only get 50 comments these days? 'CAUSE EVERYONE FUCKING LEFT.

    'Tis true. Sad, but true.

  9. MS partnering with former employees... by 3seas · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Amiga inc, has hired several former Microsoft Employees and now they are in a partnership with MS to provide content for MS products like CE.

    Many in the classic Amiga community do not like this and also don't like Amiga taking claim of ownwership of the community, in claims that the community is 110% supportive of what they are doing.

    A couple of Amiga news boards have dropped all news directly tied to Amiga inc. in a boycott.

    If you really want to do something about MS then let people know that you do not support MS and that there are alternatives.

    Simply Put: Boycott MS in any and all ways you can.

    "Brendan Sullivan is an absolute marvel. The issue is whether he will be able to crack Gates and show some of the less-believable aspects," Lande said

    Wasn't one of the first American bare fists fighting champions named Sullivan? Any way this promises to be a contest of world calibre. Hopefully this will be televized. I'd pay to witness this while I'd never pay to see Tyson/Lewis.
