- Hmmmnn....when I use the word "cheat" I mean either that you don't deliver
- what you promised to or that you steal something from me. When has Microsoft
- done either one?

- Hmmmnnn...when I use the word "bully" I mean someone who uses physical force
- to try and get his/her way. When has Microsoft used physical force
- to get their way?

- The word "bully" can much more accuratly be applied to the FTC. They are
- trying to use physical force to make Bill Gates, at the gunpoint of the
- police, do what they want him to do.
