Microsoft Not Out Of Anti-Trust Hot Water

tickticker writes "EWeek is reporting on the Anti-Trust follow up, and of course it sounds like a victory for Justice: 'The judges 'were encouraging in the sense that they went to the heart of the case,' Robert Bork, who represented the Computer and Communications Industry Association and the Software and Information Industry Association, said following the court arguments. Bork formerly was a judge on the appeals court.' Microsoft comments included the 'abundance of choice' defence. Which to me means that Microsoft wants the last of the hold-outs to choose Microsoft."

    I've come to the conclusion that some if not most slashdotter's [sic] are too riled by minor details.

    Oh, the irony that forces me to make this post....

    Kuney said that Internet Explorer is a fruit, but Microsoft's Lacovar said that there is no evidence to show that.

    I admit that I hate microsoft just as much as the next guy but reverting to this kind of name calling is just plain wrong.

    Internet Explorer's preferences are its own buisness and nobody elses!
    We should all acknowledge Internet Explorer's decision to operate in whatever way it sees fit and allow it to use whatever plugins it enjoys. I know it acts a little differently than the other browsers but that's their choice to make and for what it's worth I support its decision and hope that despite all the Microsoft bashing the slashdot community chooses to show Internet Explorer no predjudice.
