    Symantec: Who's afraid of Microsoft?

    http://news.zdnet.com/2100-1009_22-5577989.html

    "I don't plan to go to the Justice Department and whine about Microsoft's monopoly," Thompson said. "I'd rather fight Microsoft in the marketplace, because I'm sure we'll whip them."
    It's good to hear statements like this rather than the whining you usually get.

    Good...it's about time !

    Gates has got enough money...too much in my opinion ( any more than enough for 3 lifetimes I consider too much )...time to spread the wealth around.

    Another adversarial deathmatch!
    I do believe that MS will offer a free Spyware protection.. It will be really bad for MS to launch it without shrtages... lol
    I do think that Symantic will bash MS....

    Yeah whatthe, What holds him back... lol .... hey will buy it once Thompson had him kicked...
