Mr. Hal, I have read every single one of your post. But what I have read just " Microsoft has violated the antitrust law, anti competition" , but have not seen any detailed description about why and how Microsoft make you the impression of anti competition, and that broke the antitrust law, could you please give one single example , in details. Secondly, why do you think having more than 90% of the market is a crime ? If being the major market share taker is a crime, the looking for growth will be a crime , too, because it will lead to a major market taker eventually. Do you indicate that all companies should not persuate a growing path or what ? It is the natural choice of the consumer to make Microsoft have more than 90% of the OS market. When Micro Soft had 50% of the OS market, it is by natural Microsoft will eventually have more than 90% of the market, because , software need compatibility. The other 40% of the consumers when they decide to buy softwares, they need to buy those softwares most people are already used so that their files when send to other users can be read, write , ...etc. that is what I mean compability . Can you imagine when you send a file to your friend through E-mail, and your fried can not open it and read it at all ? So, Microsoft has more than 90% of the market , it is GOD's will, and the choice of consumers, I call freedom of choice !!!!
