I'll accept your apology, but I can't see how you say your remark was
not meant to be personal.   It is obvious that you attacked my
credibility as a means of dismissing what I said.

That is no outrage, it is the complete truth, as born out through an
examination of the history of Microsoft.  As another poster pointed out,
it is amply proven by Microsoft's own internal documents.   Do you
really believe that you are in a better position to judge the validity
of the evidence than the DOJ and the twenty states that have spent
months and even years examining it?
