RealNetworks Sues Microsoft Over Antitrust Issues

jamacdon writes "Yahoo! has an article about RealNetworks Inc. filing an antitrust suit against Microsoft, claiming that MS has violated antitrust laws. This claim appears to revolve around how PC makers are restricted from including competing media players. Very similiar to the Internet Explorer issue, but different content. Will the results be the same?"

    I have made the offer before, and I will make the offer again, to you...

    If you can create a sig, that is small enough that slashcode won't mutilate it, that has a better warning, I would be more than happy to replace my current sig with it.

    It's not meant as a troll, of course, it's just that I hate javascript, and people either need to learn, or suffer... Muwawaahahaahaa....
