Re: "As to it being legal to be a monopolist and abuse that the way MSFT did? 'tis not."

That's not what I was taking issue with. You said MSFT was found "guilty as charged" by todays ruling. You were wrong. Today's ruling was not a ruling of guilt or innocence but a ruling of fact. MSFT was ruled to be a monopoly and to have used that position to basically bully the competition. There was no ruling as to whether or not that constituted a violation of law. It may very well turn out that way but you were incorrect in saying that todays ruling was "guilty as charged".
