    >if it were only so simple as that.

    I'm guessing it is exactly that simple or you would have offered an intelligent rebuff and not a trite dismissal.

    So I'm thinking about it wrong...

    How?

    Because I'm not jumping off the "I hate Microsoft" Lemming cliff?

    Yes. I agree. Your post is very boring.

    If a company comes up with a competitive OS to Microsoft, it's all good.

    If Microsoft comes up competitive product to another company, they are evil.

    Ummm. Does that attitude sound screwed up to anyone else?

  5. Comment - Netflix Antitrust Case to Continue

    Ringmaster, are you even remotely familiar with the history of this case? You should be before making comments.

    Regardless, Blockbuster is not suing Netflix because "NetFlix better handles the automatic queues than Blockbuster Online, doesn't mean they're infringing on patents". Netflix is suing Blockbuster saying that Blockbuster stole their queuing idea.

    Blockbuster is countersuing saying that "Netflix... was attempting to monopolize the online DVD rental industry through litigation"

    This, of course, points out your fallacious about "Blockbuster hav[ing] stores nationwide". The counter suit is not about retail stores but ONLINE distribution.

    Your claim that "U.S. District Judge William Alsup doesn't know what he's talking about" would have more merit if YOU knew what you were talking about.

    In summary, if you can't say anything intelligent, don't say anything.
