Pardon me for my ignorance, but has the EU determined that Microsoft Office constitutes a monopoly?
Does this mean any software that captures a substantial market share is monopolistic unless it's free? Wait... IE and WMP is free but this shows MS is also monopolistic. This is mishugina. |

| #1: I would say that MS has an effective monopoly in the office software market and it has nothing to do with whether or not it's free. Do they have any serious competition being widely deployed? No. Besides, being a monopoly is not the issue. The issue is MS illegally abusing their monopoly to thwart competition and keep the status quo. Their tricks at ISO are just another example of them doing whatever they have to to erase any competition. |
