I'm still laughing at it !!!!!

another thing suppose they do,
immagine you'd be in a position to release that source code to the web (legally or not...) would that risk be worth it ?
i mean, what if you have to do something illegal to proof that ms is violating the anitrust laws; plus a magnificient pay back to poor bill (i'm drewling just at the idea of windows open
code ...hehehe)
how tempting and would that be worht it ?
