do you see a monopoly on Microsoft OS business if there are so many threats from all over the places ?

Well, there aren't many threats today. The Netscape situation shows how powerful the barriers to entry are in the desktop OS market. NS created and dominated the browser market, but even that wasn't enough for them to survive after they said that they would try to to become a competing platform.

Ed, Monopoly is not the key issue. The issue is when you will ever see MSFT go back to 170. Stay long and long, and be patient.
