Quote for the day:
"A great lie! An unbelievable lie. Did anyone utter those words? Our e-mail,
every piece of it, has been searched. I wish we had found somebody who said
it. Then we could take him out, and we could hang the guy, then we’d say OK,
mea culpa. We found him - the guy who said, `I’ll cut off your oxygen.”’"
--Bill Gates, referring to the “We’re going to cut
off their [Netscape’s] air supply. Everything they’re selling, we’re
giving away for free.” quote attributed to Microsoft VP Paul Maritz in
the US DOJ’s evidence at the anti-trust trial
