Chuck:

2. MSFT clearly has a monopoly in the OS market

I present to you, in technicolor:

sun.com
be.com
suse.com
freebsd.org
sco.com
apple.com
www-4.ibm.com

The Oxford American Dictionary defines monopoly as ``exclusive possession of the trade in some commodity.'

The commodity here is the OS, and clearly there is no monopoly, unless of course you've redefined the prefix mono to mean the exact same thing as poly which gives us polypoly. Want a cracker?
