Microsoft has been allowed to bully companies and people for years.......That is how Microsoft has grown into such a huge successful company and why most company PC's sold have Windows as the OS and ALL home computers have Windows OS. MSFT was allowed to force people to buy/use their OS and products when selling computers, such an advantage that NO ONE could compete with them and create/sell a better product.....because of this Windows(microsoft) is now dominant in OS/software...We live with and accept this BUGGY CRAPPY OS because the competition was not allowed to create a better OS or Force Microsoft to MAKE Windows better. You may say it is the best out there, but I say that there would have been a FAR superior OS if fair competition had been present rather than the MSFT monopoly been allowed to dominate the software industry. To those of you that own MSFT you see no wrong...To others who Own competitors stock..or their life/livelyhood depends on a competitors success, the view is not so rosey/biased. For every argument made for why there is nothing wrong with how MSFT has been allowed to do business, there are 2 arguments/examples to show how they cheat/bully/muscle/break the law.

Larry T. and Alan, your statements would be more creditable if you showed ANY objectivity and less bias that MSFT does nothing wrong. You probably believe the Clinton is being TOTALLY honest too..
