No - what they are doing is forcing MS to allow for better Linux compatibility. Right now, all you have is a closed sourced monopoly that forces competing system to reverse engineer things such as Samba just to talk to a MS box. So, from the evidence of the facts, I disagree with your assesment.

Whatever. |
Both the American court of law and European court of law found the same evidence, so are you discounting that? Only diff is, Europeans are doing what they said they would do while the US is backing off on its initial requirements which included breaking the company up! I always found the European solution a better plan of action than actually breaking the company up however and it is good the way things turned out.
