   However, the US DOJ hasn't been especially tough with M$ after their latest   
   delivery of a well-earned slap on the wrist. It takes a lot of cash to help   
   elected American officials make the "correct" choices.    :)   
      
   IMO, M$ did the Novell Bogopatent Axis Nonagression Pact to deliver threats   
   like this without skirting too close to the antitrust tarpit. It also makes   
   for great M$ propaganda about "cooperation" with FOSS developers.
