I like MSFT crimes! These crimes and monopolies have enabled us today to post and communicate here SI. One should go back to history and see what MSFT has done to this industry. From development and enhancement of BASIC, FORTRAN,COBOL,XENIX OS to integration with Apple; from MS-DOS 1.0 revolution, product development for Mac, to windows; from desktop publishing, programming tools to Internet technology. Is it monopoly or innovation and perfection? Is it monopoly or understanding how to foresee future? While MSFT is accused to be monopolyer, I am sure MSFT has lots of great ideas in its sleeves. Without MSFT and INTC how other great companies like Adobe would emerge and grow? MSFT has helped other small companies with financial and strategic partnership. MSFT is the greatest story of American business and enterprise. MSFT should not compromise with government if it limits its innovation. Any sanction or breaking MSFT will have adverse effects on US economy, industry's growth and even on companies that may file lawsuit against MSFT like IBM and SUNW. This is a dangerous play and should be resolved out of court. Good luck. P.S. I do not have any position in MSFT.
