>>It has yet to be proven that they have violated any law

They contract-tied products and services: you get our OS IF and only IF you bundle IE. Illegal. I am amazed by the abundant incompetence I see in this issue. It is simple, but Gates et al succeeds to blur and confuse the issues. the OS and IE are one product, YET, IE is sold/available as a separate product. What on earth is this oxymorono-ism??

At any rate. IT and the software industry are the biggest wealth generating industry to the economy now. It will only hurt the general if there is only one choice. I do not know how long it will take people to realise this.
