Yeah, see what can happen when people voice their opinion?

I think there's more to why they decided this, but who cares.

Half the reason they let up on this, IMHO is you dont kill off the group
that does 99% of your post_shipping_beta_testing <G>.

I don't think it was out of the goodness of their heart.  I can't help but
think they saw a loosing battle here, and another possible run-in with the
FTC.  Microsoft doesn't typically give up much this easily.

We'll never really know.
