<p style='margin-left:36.0pt'><span style='font-family:"MS Sans Serif","serif";
color:black'>We need to keep the competition, but in a way that technical
excellence wins. Like most I got frustrated with the VHS vs Beta outcome ...
but then again along came DVD's some time later.</span> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>I
am completely at a loss to envisage what sort of competition you have in mind that
allows two technologies to compete but which at the point at which one of those
looks to become the “winner” is then subjected to some sort of “technical
excellence” test in order to determine whether it should be allowed to
continue.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style='margin-left:36.0pt'><span style='font-family:"MS Sans Serif","serif";
color:black'>Freedom is a liberty many have died for in the past, and it
applies as much to technology as to politics.</span> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Oh
puh-lease. Not only is this emotive nonsense, but it completely flies in
the face of what you previously said.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>You
can’t prosthelytise freedom on the one hand and then call for a limited
or restricted form of competition on the other.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
