Greeting's Woz,
Read your brief article on "The Microsoft Monopoly" and found it to be very interesting. I especially liked your response to the Browser thing and found it to be a very equitable solution. But, sad to say, I hardly believe Microsft would do divest it's browser and pay Netscape (AOL) for lost revenue as that would be admitting to a wrong. I would be very interested on your comments regarding Bill Gates and Microsoft's constant clamoring about "Freedom to Innovate". For me, I've grown very tired about hearing that from them, given the actions they have committed against Apple, Netscape and other aspiring companies in the past. It would seem to me that their "Freedom to Innovate" is referencing their rather dispicable behavior and pension for destroying anything or any company that might be construed as competition to their "almighty" Windows. I find their statement to be a complete contradiction in terms. Please do put the unaltered editorial you had written for the LA Times on your website as I would be very interested in reading it. God knows we can't seem to get the truth from the news media.... Thank you Chris H.
