That's everybodies wish, burns.

But If somebody did file today, it would only be
2011 when the case was finally heard and decided.

   American Courts don't increase that much }

I know how you feel, but the futility of it would make
me feel used.  I'm quite sure if MS lost this case,
they would APPEAL until a sitting US government that
did support their position was elected.

I'm sorry, but I would want IBM to hammer MS
instead, because IBM has the deeper pockets.

It would be worth to see MS get trashed and hammered, even
if it was payback for the flushing they recieved for the
destruction of OS/2.

Linux developers have a hard time as it is just trying
to stay above water, let alone fight MS on MS turf.

What I would love to see instead, is some of the OS/2
code enter the LINUX Kernel.

God, MS and possibly Bill Gates, would put in their
place then :)
