OFT say you have our attention on M$

After this website appeared http://www.oft.me.uk earlier this week as
part of the Reboot Movement launch of a fresh campaign to end the MicrosOFT
and Intel monopoly which is holding Linux and many other systems back.
Following on swiftly from the launch of the MacBook signalling the
beginning of the end of non-x86 based PCs being available in the
highstreet. The OFT called Reboot at 10.50am on Friday and said take the
website down by midnight Friday or face legal action. The website running
on Gentoo Linux parodies former OFT Director General John Bridgeman and
the OFT with a spoof press release. As you can see the site is still
there, as are copies worldwide (mirrors are welcome and some of the
content uses FSF licences).
The OFT has said that I have got their attention but are still refusing
to start an investigation into MicrosOFT and that they have not had any
complaints officially even though I have sent yet another complaint on
Monday 23 Jan by recorded delivery. While Home Secretary Charles Clarke
is getting involved. The original website (www.oft.gov.uk) contains over
90 errors according to HTML Validator on the homepage alone and there
several are missing CSS such as
http://www.oft.gov.uk/NR/oft/themes/basic.new.css .I have already supplied
errors information and am preparing a fixed version of the homepage for
them, as yet the OFT's webmaster has yet to sort the problems out, but
what do you expect when they use M$ code as part of this public site.
Reboot will continue to mount the pressure on the OFT, in the words of
John Kerry campaign "Bring it on!".
