[ILUG] M$ misbehavior

Seems to me that any such reports of Microsoft misbehavior are food for the
Linux mill and a legitimate topic which should be passed on to friends,
clients, the media, and your local lawmaker.  Is it not the case that we
are in the business of putting Bill Gates out of business?  (Yes, I realize
that our True Motives are a Workable OS, and Care and Feeding of Penguins,
but these seem to be pretty much the same thing as putting Billg out of
commission.)

Cheers,

--Ferren
