JohnF.: That is why AAPL is the best example of what a monopoly is. It excludes competition and raises prices while shrinking markets relative to overall market growth. This is certainly not the case for MSFT. MSFT is being punished for political reasons and to bolster its weak competitors not for any real harm done to consumers. MSFT will be vindicated no matter what smarmy tricks and traps Jackson thinks he has set up to protect his vindictive and biased conclusions. JFD
