Re: And they are right said by baineschile:Did anyone intervieneve when Microsoft owen 85% of their marketshare (computer operation systems)? If Comcast can expand they should...its called capitalism. ATT, Verizon, and the Satellites are formidale foes, and one will always keep the other from becoming a monopoloy. how do you sue a company that has a monopoly on one product? force them to stop making the one operating system they make?
i love people who always bring microsoft up. |

Once Microsoft controlled the market on the OS, they began integrating products into it that were not part of the core functionality, yet added on to the cost of the product. You could not pay $35 for Windows without IE, Media Player, Paint, Wordpad, etc. You are forced to buy it all or nothing. And let's not even get started on forcing file format changes into Office so people get fed up with conversions and just buy a new version that has marginal benefits....
