Their arrogance will be their undoing, ask Bill Gates (even though the U.S. Justice Department was pathetic with the settlement on Microsoft's monopolistic behavior).
Terrible analogy, Microsoft is light years away from being "undone".

Unfortunately, you're correct. Until stupid people wake up and realize that Microsoft's "products" aren't worth the insane amount of money they charge for it, the status quo will never change. Only a jack ass pays $500 for Microsoft Office when you can use OpenOffice.org 2 for FREE, which does the EXACT same stuff and even saves in Microsoft formats.

Microsoft has proven that capitalism in this country is broken. They're exactly the reason why the government needs to step in and flex it's muscles by setting price ceilings on software, specifically Microsoft's. And I hope nobody has the balls to say they're charging that much money to "recover development costs" -- if that were true, how come MS makes billions in PURE PROFIT every single year? Answer: By charging WAY TOO MUCH for their software. Then they have the nerve to wonder why WinXP and Office has been pirated so much.
