Re: "Mehrdad, Don't you understand that MSFT cannot legally compete the way everyone else does. There are a different set
of rules for companies with a monopoly. That is the law. As for the pool of talent, it remains to be seen what happens to
that pool if they no longer have in-the-money options to keep them at MSFT.
"

Question. If MSFT were split up into 3-5 different companies would each of those companies be considered a monopoly and would they be relieved of the monopolistic laws? And could it be possible that each different company operate the same way the old non-monopolistic MSFT did to become a monopoly? And wouldn't that mean that all their competitors will now have 3-5 times as many aggressive competitors?
