Taken in the context of a serial killer, would you honestly say:
Look, everyone can read the papers. Every Paper for the last two
months is saying the serial killer is targeting every blond male over the height
of 6"5'. On a daily basis. It's that dumb blonde's fault for going out for a
walk alone. His family doesn't deserve closure with regards the serial killer
being caught and sentenced.
Do you really, honestly, believe
that?
Did you even read the post you replied to? Did you not notice
that it says:What Microsoft did was wrong. There is no question in
my mind about that. It's
too bad the DoJ didn't go after Microsoft for the MS
Office Monopoly and punish
Microsoft for withholding the namespace APIs and
other antitrust things they
did. I don't see how you could ask
your questions if you had.
For whatever reason, the DoJ didn't go after
Microsoft for doing that. For whatever reason, Novell didn't file a lawsuit
against Microsoft in time to be able to say, "Look, see! That was an antitrust
violation. It harmed us. We should win." Instead, all that Novell can do now is
to try to argue a much weaker case that depends in part on what decisions
Novell's management would make and how they were stewarding
WordPerfect.
It's a fact that Novell didn't file back in the 1990s. It's
not helpful to pretend that the situation is the same as if they had. It
would be helpful to read and understand the comment you are replying to,
though.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
