Mocrosoft Abuse of Monopoly Power

RE: " Imagine requiring that they install a copy of NSCP as part of their software. Why just NSCP why not all the other purveyors of browsers who are even more poorly run than NSCP?"

Easy there:
Remember, there were allegations of illegal activity specifically aimed at Netscape's browser product. Therefor, we may expect to be presented with a legal remedy specifically aimed at Netscape's browser product.

Who cares, because the better product will naturally prevail, and it is the consumer who gets to decide.

Besides, we are all for a free and honest market, right? Free and honest would preclude illegal activity, right? Besides, there may have been no illegal activity at all, right? Why worry?!
