I still don't get it. Microsoft bundling Microsoft with Microsoft... all companies do that. And there was never any proof that RealPlayer or Netscape was sabatoged on Windows. Should I sue Sony for forcing a ton of Sony Applications and MemoryStick on me when I bought my vaio? They even put a link to the Connect store... How DARE THEY! It so uncompetitive to iTunes or Rhapsody!]]>Sep 11th 2007 2:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/

If your only rebutal is name calling... well that is pretty lame.]]>Sep 11th 2007 2:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/
What bug crawled up your ass? The guy asked why MS is being punished for bundling software when other companies do similar things, if there's a difference why don't you try explaining that difference instead of resorting to childish name calling?]]>Sep 11th 2007 2:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/It served its purpose and allowed other providers to catch up, but now MS is unable to put features in its OS that are a standard part of other operating systems.
This whole deal hit a low point for me when MS had to reduce security on vista to ensure that third party antivirus programs could still be run.

If a competitor can build something into the software, MS should be able to as well. Apple, for example, has gone far beyond the original complaint against MS (tying near-monopoly products with other systems so that success in one requires the other), but they have only recently begun to come under scrutiny. ]]>Sep 11th 2007 4:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/Sep 11th 2007 2:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/Sep 11th 2007 2:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/Sep 11th 2007 4:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/Sep 11th 2007 6:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/Sep 11th 2007 2:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/states-want-court-oversight-of-microsoft-for-another-five-years/
