It's called the "Money-go-round" Stu Microsoft gets fined $2.2 Trillion - > Microsoft has to make $2.2 Trillion - > Prices for Microsoft Windows and Office go up - > Consumer has to pay more - > Microsoft Breaks Even Common sense... It's happened before and it will happen again - History will just go on repeating itself. It could also go the other way... Microsoft needs to make money - what better way then to take down Hotmail Storage to 1MB and then charge for the extra storage? CyberChuck |

| 142790 | 2003-05-10 02:27:00 | Question is, what does E.ric and Thomas get out of it? | Thomas (1820) | ||
| 142791 | 2003-05-10 02:34:00 | Only a looney would think that anyone would get fined 2 trillion. Sheesh, by the time it goes through all the Supreme court processes MS will be lucky to even pay a fine. The only thing trillion on the internet is the messenging program. I wouldn't be surprised if the web page posted is a hoax anyway. |

The only misleading thing is "$2 . 2 trillion" without looking it up could be worth our $4 . 4 Billion . |

| 142796 | 2003-05-10 07:03:00 | Ummm when was the last time Microsoft was seriously penalised for any of their wrongdoings as a monopoly.... Someone will get out the corporate wet bus ticket, give them a jolly good slap and be done with it. </thread> |
