...actually hard to imagine how, for Microsoft, it could have come out any worse. The ruling carefully lays out the factual basis for the major antitrust violations that seem certain to follow. And it paints an exceedingly dark portrait of one of America's most admired companies. The Microsoft of Judge Jackson's narrative is a deep-pocketed bully that uses "its prodigious market power and immense profits to harm" companies that presume to compete with it. And it presents Gates as a law-flouting monopolist who makes a "threat" to one rival considering getting into the software market...

The teachers are all involved in extra activities with the children. And what about the parents? You made it seem as if we don't exist. Parent participation is very visible. A few of the stories talked about the Webster school I know. The rest seemed like just trying to find dirt. You lost who and what Webster is all about. CARRIE FLICK Webster Groves...
