...turns defiant, evasive and testy -- though never openly hostile -- Gates conceded little to government attorney David Boies' attempts to prove that Microsoft had a pattern of using its market dominance to bully potential competitors, although his memory lapses and evasions sounded hard to believe. You'd have to score this round a gritty draw -- making the video unlikely to fly off the shelves at Blockbuster...

Experiment Below has a frighteningnumber of similarities with a horror film likeThe Bride of Chucky. Initially, the albumis innovative, promising and startling with itssudden climaxes and its metallic, synthesizedsound. Yet, Experiment Below loses itsshock value after the listener becomesdesensitized by the relentless repetition ofclimaxing patterns, as is the case with thesenseless gore in The Bride of Chucky.Music must...
