Economaniack, good post, but I'll be brief: - If you really think about it, software is much LESS of a "natural monopoly" than hardware. Look at Linux, for example. Or Firefox. What's the hardware analog to Linux and Firefox? - You can argue over the legality of bundle pricing, but that's not going to stop Intel from doing it, nor will it stop AMD from responding likewise (AMD-ATI being a good example). By the time the courts decide one way or the other (and it's very doubtful in my mind that the courts here in America will decide in favor of AMD), the entire game will have changed. The tech market moves at light speed compared to the federal bureaucracy. Tenchusatsu
