New And this is the part overlooked by so many "journalists".
Just about each and every company that ever wrote software for the x86 platform now has an option to sue MS.

Well, if they wrote software since 1995 or whenever.

Not to mention that these cases can be tried in the victim's home state. Go for a jury trial of locals.

New Notice that they mentioned 100 "existing" lawsuits
... how many more will be filed now that the 800 pound gorilla has been put on a leash?

Today's IE removal announcement is merely the first thing Microsoft will change in order to appear to be a good citizen. (or am I being cynical.)

I just wonder how mad Bill will get when he finds out how much his company is going to be fined and penalized. Especially after all these forthcoming peace-offerings. (:

Not such a bad thing, to be farmed by rats...
