That is entirely false. Read how Microsoft crushed Netscape
Navigator. http://usvms.gpo.gov/findfact.html

As hard as it may be to believe, the declaration of a court is not
any kind of final or universal authority, except in legal terms.

Anybody who wants to know what happened to Netscape Navigator needs
to read that document. There are copies of it in various places on
the Internet.

Pure speculation. But in fact, Microsoft has a stranglehold on
the personal computer software market.

Microsoft has a near-monopoly on PC operating systems.

That's what I thought. You don't believe what most technically
inclined computer users have understood long before our federal
courts decided the issue.

No what I believe is you trust in liars! And I have make a clear cut
case of it.

Are you a Libertarian?

No! I am nothing! I don't vote at all because I am responsible for
my actions. Something that those like you can't claim.

Only a few believed personal computers are going away could you
believe Microsoft is going away.

I don't understand this statement.

Microsoft has a stranglehold on personal computer software.

Not so! That is like saying Linux has a stranglehold on the personal
computer software. Both are rivals. Something that you will never
understand!

Microsoft should be corrected to spur competition among all of
the other capable software developers here in the United States.

Legal "corrections" are notorious for their ineffectiveness.
Market forces are much more balanced and reliable, even if they
don't move as quickly as some might like.

The problem isn't the operating system, unless you want to consider
the problem with innovation given no competition. The problem is the
operating system maker making applications. It's kind of like being
on a farm. Let's say the operating system is your farm machinery,
and the applications are your various crops. You wouldn't want the
farm machinery favoring one crop or another or you're likely to end
up with munched up potatoes.

Anybody is free to create their own OS and some have. And Linux is
the strongest competitor to MS. A fact that you have been ignoring
this whole time.

The likely scenario is this. As Microsoft grows old and lazy, it
will continue to suck applications into its maelstrom. Microsoft
already owns the biggest money makers. The lazier Microsoft gets,
the more applications it will have to add to its collection. First
it has been the most lucrative applications and applications that
Microsoft and its family might need or enjoy. Second it is
applications that make the most money. Eventually, any software that
makes money will be dominated by Microsoft. Microsoft also squeezes
more and more money out of its already captive users. And eventually
they cry to the government for relief.

Still ignoring Linux and Open Office like a dumbass. Good show John.
Ignorance is your best suite!

If you believe Microsoft is okay, then you are just ignorant of
the facts.

Or I simply disagree with you, which is not the same thing.

Or you haven't read the Findings of Fact on Microsoft.

From known liars? Good show John... good show!

And in fact, there's very little difference.

In some respects. Why don't you clamor for the break-up of public
utilities, then?

The operating system maker should not be allowed to make
applications, whatever you call it. If that were to pose some threat
to Microsoft's Windows dominance, I guess that would be competition.

lol

I wasn't joking. Why do you think there is no competition for the
military?

You really need to include more than one level of quoting.

From a guy who can't even respond from quotes from others at all.
Good show John. Drop to the lowest level possible!

That's why Microsoft has had so much legal trouble.

Microsoft has had a lot of legal trouble because it has made a lot
of well-funded enemies by virtue of its exceptional performance.

I agree that's partly true. But the separation of the operating
system maker from the applications makers makes perfect sense to me.

Buy a Linux computer then. What is your problem?

I would seize a baseball bat from anybody who aggressively
bludgeons another person to death. I could not care less whether
you legally acquired and own that baseball bat.

You'd prefer to let that mass murderer with the machine gun
continue to shoot at innocent bystanders?

I guess something was lost in the translation. Again, you really
need to include more than one level of quoting.

Since you can't address facts in front of you face, your requests
are meaningless.

Just because Microsoft owns Windows, does not mean Microsoft can do
anything it wants with Windows, no more than the rightful owner of a
baseball bat can aggressively bash in the skull of his enemy.

Because I'm using AMD very well.

Maybe you should buy a Mac.

Again, you really need to quote more than one level.

Having no choice of operating systems is not necessarily bad. Having
no choice for office applications and eventually no choice for many
other applications is bad.

You are such a dumbass! I said many times now there are Linux and
OpenOffice. You on the other hand want to be a total jerk and ignore
the facts! That is okay John, we all now know you are just a
dumbass. So you have nothing more to prove.
