"To me, the DOJ's complaint reads almost as if the internet didn't exist. "

I downloaded the complaint and started reading it. Are we reading from the same document? The first 10 pages are an explicit discussion of the Internet and browsers. The whole complaint is based on MS using unfair practices to leverage its dominance on the desktop to internet software.

As to the question of path dependence being a surrogate for efficiency and the claim that a] path dependence doesn't exist or b] if it does we can prove that MS is a natural monopoly. I'll get back to you on that. Suffice it to say I read Margolis and don't find the argument very convincing.
