You know, the really strong antitrust tradition started with the breakup
of US Steel... and not too long after that breakup, the resulting companies
were worth a lot more than the old US Steel had been.

I really think that Microsoft Divided would end up becoming more valuable
to the stockholders than Microsoft is now. Too bad Bill Gates isn't really
in it for the money any more.
