  <DIV><FONT size=2>You are probably right. Why should we take action against

  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV><FONT size=2>What action to take with Microsoft will require the wisdom 
  of Solomon. Bill Gates may be signaling that, rather than a breakup into OS 
  and applications, what might be acceptable is a breakup into operational and 
  research (where Gates himself would take over the equivalent of Bell Labs AKA 
  Lucent and Ballmer running the rest). How that would satisfy the Department of 
  Justice eludes me, but then Gates can't figure what the fuss&nbsp;is all about 
  to begin with.</FONT></DIV>

    =========================================================<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt; 
    Today's WinInfo<BR>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; Report: U.S. government seeks to break 
    up Microsoft!<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt; Report: U.S. government seeks to break 
    up Microsoft!<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt; According to a report Wednesday in USA Today, 
    the United States<BR>government<BR>&gt; and 19 U.S. states will seek to 
    break up Microsoft Corporation into two<BR>&gt; smaller companies should it 
    win its antitrust case against the software<BR>&gt; giant. And such a 
    victory is virtually guaranteed unless Microsoft<BR>reaches a<BR>&gt; 
    settlement, given the harsh language of the findings of fact, which 
    were<BR>&gt; issued last November. Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson, who is 
    overseeing<BR>the<BR>&gt; case, will deliver his conclusions of law in 
    February.<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt; The U.S. government and various states had been at 
    odds regarding the<BR>&gt; eventual punishment of Microsoft ever since they 
    combined forces to bring<BR>&gt; the monopolist to justice. However, 
    according to the USA Today report, a<BR>&gt; consensus has finally been 
    reached and the current plan is to split<BR>&gt; Microsoft into two 
    companies, one that sells its Windows operating system<BR>&gt; and one that 
    would sell applications software. Windows is installed on<BR>well<BR>&gt; 
    over 90% of all personal computers sold and in operation 
    today.<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt; Though Microsoft says it is open to a settlement, the 
    company isn't<BR>&gt; interested in being split up.<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt; "[A 
    breakup] would do great harm to the industry," said Microsoft<BR>&gt; 
    spokesperson Mike Murray.<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt; Late Wednesday, the U.S. 
    Department of Justice (DOJ) publicly commented<BR>on<BR>&gt; the USA Today 
    story, which it described as "inaccurate in several<BR>respects."<BR>&gt; 
    USA Today then announced that it stands by the story, however. 
    Microsoft<BR>&gt; shares fell almost 4 to 105 13/16 as rumors swirled about 
    breakups and<BR>&gt; settlement talks; Microsoft lawyers also met today in 
    Chicago with the<BR>&gt; mediator in its antitrust case.<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt; 
    Oddly enough, AOL's purchase of Time Warner this week makes 
    Microsoft's<BR>&gt; position in its antitrust trial more positive: Microsoft 
    argued that its<BR>&gt; domination of the computer industry was under 
    constant attack and that it<BR>&gt; could fall by the wayside at any time 
    should its competitors come<BR>together<BR>&gt; in a convincing way. With 
    the AOL/Time Warner deal, that may have just<BR>&gt; 
    happened.<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt;<BR><BR><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>

<DIV><FONT size=2>I don't think I have anything mixed up. More likely is that I 
have read the publicly distributed Findings of Fact in DOJ vs Microsoft and am 
more familiar with American law.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>From your comments, which are pretty&nbsp;far ranging, I think 
you might not understand what Microsoft did with respect to Compaq. It also did 
similar things with other companies. But let me return to Compaq, because it 
helps to understand the facts as revealed by Microsoft's own internal documents 
as made public in the trial.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Question: What right does Microsoft have to demand that Compaq 
not use Netscape at its personal browser? Compaq was installing Internet 
Explorer on systems sold to customers, which should have made Microsoft content, 
but it had adopted the internal company standard of using Netscape which 
predated IE. Microsoft demanded that this end.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Question: Switching the context, if you think that Microsoft 
has this right and you happen to not use Internet Explorer, do you believe that 
Microsoft has the right to force you to switch to Internet Explorer, and if you 
refuse, that it has the right to strip Windows off your personal computer and 
electronically monitor your system to insure that you never install Windows on 
your system?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>The issue is not whether Microsoft has the right to distribute 
and sell its products, nor is it that Microsoft owns the rights to these 
products. No one has argued that it does not. The issue that has been 
adjudicated, re-stated in different terms, is whether Microsoft had the right to 
use its monopoly power to force people to buy its product when they do not wish 
to do so. Microsoft was interfering with the right of individuals and companies 
to freely choose other products.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Another example: IBM has an office application suite of its 
own (Lotus) that it put on computers that it builds. Do you think that Microsoft 
has the right to force IBM to replace its own Lotus software with that of 
Microsoft Office?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>There are more examples that were proven during the course of 
the trial, and they are all contained in the Findings of Fact document. 
Personally, I want my right protected to freely choose products and services as 
guaranteed by the law. I refuse the assertion that any company has the 
right&nbsp;to coerce me to buy its products.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Maybe if your information sources were not from press 
accounts, then you might have a more circumspect understanding of Microsoft's 
actions.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>

    <DIV><FONT size=2>What action to take with Microsoft will require the wisdom

    and applications, what might be acceptable is a breakup into operational and 
    research (where Gates himself would take over the equivalent of Bell Labs 
    AKA Lucent and Ballmer running the rest). How that would satisfy the 
    Department of Justice eludes me, but then Gates can't figure what the

I'm in the midst of reading DiNapoli's Trading with DiNapoli Levels which I
bought from a private party and am learning a lot (or seeing the same info
presented differently - but it's meaningful to me nonetheless). I've taken a
couple of profitable daytrades this week off his MACD and Stochastic method
of looking at data and I love how his (?) displaced 3,3 moving average is
effective in keeping you in "runaway" stocks. He's really fussy about how
indicators (specifically stochastics) are encoded. I'm wondering whether
anyone who bought the book from him has the MetaStock formulas. Private
email would be great. Thanks for any help with this.
