Microsoft's Longhorn Faces Antitrust Scrutiny

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the fine-toothed-comb dept.

benore writes "The Department of Justice will be reviewing Microsoft's Longhorn product as part of the company's antitrust settlement. One analyst opines that Mircosoft is appearing to soften its image to become kinder and gentler. 'They don't want people to hate them anymore. They've learned from their mistakes.' Hmmm."

    Sorry, that's total bullshit. The slashdot editors don't control public opinion, the truth is that Microsoft are hated for good reason. So....
    Fuck Microsoft and fuck you too!

    such bullshit.. of course microsft wants to act that way, who doesnt put their tail between their legs when you know the all powerful USA gov will screw you if you dont. When companies become too damm good and take too much marketshare the government thinks it is a monopoly. there is nothing wrong with having a monopoly if everyone just really likes your product. GM used to underproduce just so that their marketshare would not get too big and have to face USA gov bullshit.. which means.. a lot of people who could have had better car did not . This is bullshit... there are so many player hating slashdotters its ridiculous.. i love linux, but dont us the governemnt to screw microsoft you geeks
