I had a discussion at work this evening with a few people who were thinking along the same lines. They claim that MSFT's guild was due to "FORCING" the vendor's to put IE on the desktop and prohibiting the vendor's from putting any other browser -i.e. Netscape's, or pay a higher price for the OS. IMO that's not a crime. If MSFT demanded those vendor's to put IE on any other OS they sold or pay a higher price for MSFT's OS, then I would call that abusing monopoly powers. Can MSFT put it's IE on SUNW's, IBM's, APPLE's, Linux etc. Do they try to demand or persuade the vendor's to? No! I still maintain it's crybabies and blood sucker's trying to gang up on the biggest most creative money maker in history! and that is sad for our government to use our tax dollars to enforce this samurai activity.
