How do you disprove a negative?

Maybe try this: Since Intel had to drop NSP, we don't have the great audio and video that we would have. That's a loss, though somewhat abstract. Less abstract is the retraining costs companies have to bear while being forced to switch from Netscape Navigator to Internet Explorer due to its integration into Windows 98.

Finally, shouldn't the elimination of competition be automatically presumed to incur a loss of some sort? It doesn't take an advanced economic degree (does Robert Bork have one? What's he doing economics for, anyway?) to believe that competition reduces prices and increases quality.
