On the Harm of Monopoly Power
In is important to remember that antitrust laws were written because of the recognition that companies with monopoly power would try to stop the introduction of useful products into society when that introduction would obsolete their own products.

The notion that Google must woo developers is a direct result of illegal use of monopoly power by Microsoft because the mobile technology Google is advocating is over 10 years old. I hope that Judge KK looks to Microsoft management in implementing the remedy which should be that Microsoft must woo mobile app developers to the standard Google and 33 other companies have adopted.
