>Good grief Jerry... You know as well as anyone else that the marketplace is amoral. If you want Microsoft to behave 'better' then convince each of the 50,000+ employees to swear allegiance to a personal code of ethics. The human condition is such that we both know that there are going to be cases where bad things hapen. That's why we have laws.

Here is another suggestion. If either of you or Jerry find Microsoft, or any other company, to be amoral, then stop buying and using their products.
