NSCP controlled 92% of the market. They dictated nearly every major change in the market up until very recently. Thier bundled apps did not encourage end users to (as the ilk would put it) "to make choices."

This is a mirror situation to MSFT, except that NSCP had the bulk of the market share. I gave you the reference to the defintion of monopoly, according to the dictionary, NSCP was a monopoly. So I still don't see the convincing portion of your argument.


Computer users didn't have a bunch of applications that needed netscape to run. If they decided they wanted something else they could go and get something else without having to spend $1000 buying new software that will run on the new browser.
