It won't matter as it can be appealed and there are three motions they can file to hold off the Break-Up And/Or they can simple ignore the order to break-up
Why?
Because thats another 2-3 Years Of Trail while they file charages and take them through Court
If Micrsoft Wants they can drag this out Easily for a minium of seven years, possible as long as twenty

well, that sucks.
I didn't expect the states to get everything they wanted, but (after following the case), I did expect the final judgement to be somewhere between the what teh states' wanted and the "settlement".
I got $20 that says they'll be back in court in 5 years to redo this whole thing AGAIN. MS doesn't play nice with competition.

Bollocks = Damn
or
Bollocks = Bulls nuts.
So you may use it for damn, and as an insult at the same time. A very usefull word.
