The next step for Microsoft | |

We've recently seen the latest stage in Microsoft settling its DoJ case with the distribution of vouchers in California and now it's the turn of Sun Microsystems to ask for its pound of flesh. A court judge has ruled that Microsoft now has 120 days to start shipping Sun's Java technology with the Windows operating systems. I suppose we all expected this outcome, although it does seem to have surprised Judge Frederick Motz, who is ruling over the hearing. Motz has now given Sun permission to continued with all 16 of its antitrust claims. Just last week the same judge granted Microsoft a motion to dismiss two of these claims and the reason for the change of mind - he misunderstood the original claims. But with his blonde moment behind him, the judge has also granted Microsoft two weeks to appeal against the decision. | ||

Add/Remove Programs I suspect. That's where it's always been in the past.
Though I suspect your question wasn't reall as much of a question as it was a statement of intent :) TL |

| I think it is safe to assume we won't have to use System Restore to get rid of it. :) |

I wonder if they'll implement a Microsoft VM / Sun VM choice in the Set Program Settings and Defaults region in the Add/Remove Program control...
If so, this is really a non-issue to begin with. While I would prefer not to have it on my machine at all, it doesn't bother me so long as I don't have to run the damn slow piece of crud. Let Sun piss and moan, they aren't going anywhere anyway. Especially having just posted their largest loss in history. :) With an inside family track at Microsoft, I can tell you that it appears very few really give a damn.
