And another thing, it is NOT ilegal for MS to buy up companies and use them
to prop up the monopoly. Of course strictly illegal for MS to use the monopoly to prop up the companies they buy. Well, that said, MS can afford the lawsuites and the fines.

So, look for Microsoft to buy as many emerging companies like this with good ideas as possible, and then make them a Windows only product, no other OS support. This will help prop up the monopoly, because of the number of cool things out there that ONLY work on Windows. And, all perfectly legal. Microsoft can even afford to lose Billions doing this if it is what it takes to maintain the monopoly.

Do not write Microsoft off.
