Windows is the most popular because Apple and IBM failed to capitalize on their vision - or they had lack of a vision.

But that doesn't matter. It's one of the fundamental aspects of this case, so it bears repeating: How Microsoft arrived at its monopoly power is not at issue in this case. One can grant, for the sake of argument, that the monopoly power was attained through wholly legal means. One can even grant that the power was handed to them on a platter by IBM, Apple and others. That's not what this case is all about.

It is about what they did with that power once it had been achieved.
