I'm with you. I agree that Microsoft has done some shady deals. However, that's business. It's America, a free country. Did we harm consumers? I don't think so..

WHAT? Yes MS did hurt consumers.

Put aside the stupid treatment of Gateway, but forcing consumers to use IE rather than allow free competition between NS and IE was hurting the consumer directly.

That's called abusing a monopoly - someone should take MS to court... oh they did - wasn't it most of the US?.

Enough - this is a troll.
