Did softie go too far? Maybe there are remedies other than the long, drawn out antitrust litigation. For example, why couldn't the companies who believe they have been harmed simply file complaints against softie for interfering with their business in a manner that caused them to lose business? While the amounts to be recovered from this approach might be less, the time for recovery might also be less. None other than the conservative Judge Bork (rejected for the Supreme Court because many conservative senators thought he was far too conservative even for them) believed there were clear precedents justifying the government claims. Comparing the differences in approach to gaining market share used by MSFT and QCOM, one can readily draw a conclusion, especially from the evidence presented at trial, that the strategy chosen by MSFT wasn't even in its own shareholders' best interest.
