Court Fails to See Logic in MS Breakup

Saying that a breakup of the Redmond Giant could simply spawn the market domination of a different company, an appeals court today questioned the entire anti-trust case against Microsoft. Reuters reports the head judge in the case told lawyers today "You're going to replace one monopoly with another if you're right." Legal experts say this particular judge's attack is significant because he was not originally expected to blast the DOJ. A ruling on the case isn't expected for another few months at the earliest, and many believe Microsoft has a solid chance of having its earlier decision by Judge Jackson overturned. Stay tuned as the case continues.
