John,
I did not know Microsoft was going to sell windows at a discount to IBM. That is a direct violation of the Clayton Antitrust Act of 1914. I now must agree that they broke the law. However I still do not agree on the punishment. A huge fine would cripple the company. Perhaps setting a reasonable price ceiling to its software prices is one thing.

Also, your comment on the game developer thing has little merit. Do you think 3dfx and ATI and Matrox are happy that Nvidia is co writing Directx8 with Microsoft? Nvidia will become the graphics chip monopoly in 1-2 years.
