One aspect that appears to be overlooked is that their
gross profit margin is also over 90%. Does anyone reading this thread know of any other company that has a gross margin at this level? Could it be that this is a function of the fact that they have a monopoly?


Any software company has a very high gross margin, because the cost of goods is low. The biggest cost of software isn't in the production, it's in the R&D.

God help us, and, more importantly, our children if Microsoft prevails. This is one battle consumers cannot afford to see lost.

At the moment you still have the right to NOT buy Microsoft's products. Don't expect to retain that right if Microsoft becomes a regulated utility.
