Post #3,582 by CRConrad 8/2/01 4:35:16 AM Reply	Gotta take issue with one point in another of your articles: From [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com/news/M010723.html\|Senate to Grill Microsoft]: "They have stated they cannot let the Windows XP release confuse consumers during the release of XBox (due for the Christmas season), so the delay in releasing XP will be a long one." Yeah, sure, they've stated that... But since when does their stating anything have to mean it's true??? It's not as if they've always worked all-out to avoid "confus[ing] consumers" before -- rather on the contrary, AFAICS. (Oh yeah, and in [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com/news/M010731.html\|Blatant Anti-Trust Violation?], you still have one typo of his name: "Let's all shed a tear for poor Mr. Balmer".) Christian R.
