If I recall correctly there were problems with the judges talking to the press and at least two of them had to be removed from the case. At several points in the proceedings Bill Gates comes off as a kind of Evil Mastermind, even without the little rigged timer stunt you mentioned. I wonder how the rise of cloud computing, where more and more of our data and applications live online, would lend more support to MS's integration argument if the case were heard today...
