The government must show that Microsoft had the power to coerce Apple to hurt Netscape and Sun, and did use that power.

This sounds a lot like an "essential facilities" kind of argument. Microsoft owns the one bridge across the river, and if the competing railroads want to use it they have to give Microsoft what it wants.

But, how, in Microsoft's case, does this harm consumers? That's one thing that has not really come through in the government's case, at least not yet.
