Microsoft Offers to Commit Suicide
Microsoft Corp. plans to argue in court hearings next week that if antitrust sanctions sought by state prosecutors are granted, the company would be forced to pull its latest Windows computer operating systems off the market and be unable to develop new systems. [Washington Post]
...stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid! Of all the moronic arguments I have ever heard this is the stupidest yet. If I were the judge I would slap the attorney silly for even speaking such a stupid idea. Great...then the court seizes Windows as a public asset and makes it open source. "Doomsday defense" my a**. This will have to go down as one of the most obscene arguments in a case that has featured many dumb arguments....mj
