My utility company never refunds any service charge when my electricity is interrupted.

Aside: Actually they often will if you complain. But it's not worth the postage, because if your power is out for twelve hours, you might get back 1/60 of your monthly bill.

And by the way, have you tried to get your money back on Windows because it crashed all the time, or because you didn't like the license agreement and were going to use Linux anyway? Good luck.

If one doesn't like explorer, there are alternatives, thus not a monopoly.

Bzzzt. The court has already gone over this. Unanimously, they said you are wrong wrong wrong.

There's a big difference between MSFT IE and a utility company.

For now. MSFT isn't yet regulated as well as the public utilities are. Give it time.
