Re: no Java in XP Windows

There is an interesting video you can watch if you want to see some info on

http://news.cnet.com/news/0-1003-201-5629597-0.html

The second video down, "Attorneys debate antitrust ruling."

It really isn't a bunch of boring legalese. I was really surprised that it
was clear and really discussed what this ruling meant.

misunderstood the whole appeals ruling. What with all the headlines, etc.,
stating "Microsoft Not Breaking Up!!" and newsgroup posts seemingly all
saying the same, I was beginning to think it must all be over already.
(Though the breakup _probably_ is done for, unfortunately.)
