Dave, you put up enough a disclamier about ignoring it, don't worry... Being a computer guy,I have rarely heard anyhting remotely true about these. I also know that the 2 favorite compaines of accused of monopoly status are MS & Intel and that the two of them merging would be like Exxon/Mobile merging with General Motors, never gonna happen. It's probably just hogwash.
