Good point. BUT, this is EU and Europe, NOT the dollar runs the courts, USA. That would also be why your friend has that expression, because HE can't buy his way out of this one.
Why are they so concerned about the server market anyway? Last time I checked, M$ was only about 42%, not exactly the 90+% desktop market they hold. Now if this turns to be the foot in the door, and once wedged can't be shut, then 'kudos' to the court. If not, who really cares? I'm sure most of M$'s faithful will rush right out and spend hundreds of dollars on the next release of windoze, so they can stay on the internet keeping it updated, and awaiting Service Packs to follow. For the life of me, I can't figure out why people spend good money for a incomplete product! GO EU.
