Re: Yes a "monopoly" can do good for the world as well.

Gee, I kind of prefer having multiple small and incompatible standards that are too expensive and never make it to the mass market.

Just kidding. I actually get your point, but I wonder who else here does....


Yes, it's so much better to have your standards rammed down your throat...

Just kidding!

Seriously, it's too bad that monopolies are the only way standards ever get created. We should all thank, for instance, MS, for creating such an open platform and transparent APIs, protocols, and document formats.

Just kidding!

DAMN AMD and their multiple small and incompatible standards! Someone should teach them a lesson...
