<Well then what is the MSFT suit all about>

Well , the suit is all about:

1) NSCP lost 60% of its browser's market share to MSFT, and that makes NSCP uncomfortable, because NSCP wants 100%.
2) DOJ is uncomfortable that NSCP has only 40% of the browser's market share, and
is helping NSCP to gain 100% of the market again under the name of justice.

DOJ always said that it does not want any party to dominate the market of any product, but it is not happy with the fact that MSFT , as a much bigger company comparing to NSCP, has 60% and NSCP has 40% of the browser market, no party dominate at all. So, waht the DOJ wants ? NSCP had 90% of the browser market , and MSFT hs 10%, and tht DOJ's definition of justice. If the DOJ wins this case, the mrket force will not ply anymore. There will be winners and losers in the market
all the time. Now the DOJ wants the market artificially divided. But , it is counted as
a crime if company did that. So, what should the company do ? If you grows your business continuously, you will eventually own the majority of the market, and you will have a problem with DOJ. If you divide the market artificially with your competitors, it is counted as crime by the DOJ. So, what should the companies do ?
all the time,
