Things work very differently between the EU and the US. As an example, in the US you are allowed to bash and humiliate a competitor. A typical political add contain no real objective information, but revolves solely around personal attacks on opponents, their past and various irrelevant affiliations. The same goes for products. It may be there's a pissing contest going on as Reinier puts it, but technically it really isn't a regulatory's job to lookout for the financial health of an involved company. Bottom line: When large companies swallow each-other, it impacts the competitive situation. This is what the commission is responsible for investigating - this is where I believe there are profound differences between the US and EU. /Casper --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
