You make three very good points :

1) Microsoft actively coaxes/coerces box-makers to include its application software when they sell their computers.

2) Their applications software is inferior compared to those developed by their competitors.

3) Due to Microsoft's predation, many of its competitors have been driven into obscurity or into oblivion.

Dipy.
