...Thomas Penfield Jackson with an alternative remedy to counter the government's proposed breakup. Unsurprisingly, the company's solution placed unacceptably weak restrictions on Microsoft's future conduct and left open a number of loopholes that are likely to be closed by the government's plan. A remedy as narrow as Microsoft's will not do enough to dissuade the company from continuing its abuse of monopoly power--a stronger resolution to the case must be employed...

...Even though many varieties of and ideas about video art exist, the moving image has only a narrow foothold in most art museums. So, when I stepped inside the Institute of Contemporary Art, I was interested and excited to see the museum filled to the brim with moving images, including Dutch artist Marijke van Warmerdam's 7 Thoughts, a series of projected film loops, and an international sampling of video art from the 1999 Venice Biennale...
