WBMW, <Maybe you are suggesting that Albert go to court against Intel, and if he gets lucky and has the right judge, he'll be able to accuse Intel of being a Monopoly?>

I wouldn't mind if he did. He'd be wasting his time and his money, and even if he succeeded, what would he win? It's not illegal to be a monopoly in America. Sure, a monopoly would be examined under a different standard than a non-monopoly. But Intel has always treaded carefully when anti-trust issues are at stake, and I don't forsee anything changing if Intel were to be declared a monopoly.

Ask yourself this: Has Microsoft's business practices changed after they were declared a monopoly? Are they in danger of being broken up? Hardly, but I guess that all depends on the judges, lawyers, politicians, etc.
