Good grief: "For my money, capitalism is biblical." And so is slavery,
stoning adulterers, and polygyny. "Microsoft served by being less expensive 
and better." Less expensive than, say, diamonds (the prices of which are
maintained far above actual market value by a huge monopoly) and better 
than, oh, cuneiform (which went the way of the dodo).
