It has been plain for years that M$ is pursuing a deliberate policy to lock out competition and create a virtual monoploy whose powers exceed all governments, the consequences of which will adversely affect all our lives.

They are already so powerful that most challenges to their sharp business practices are ineffective. It is clear that M$ flout the intentions and spirit of the original anti trust settlement with impunity.

Of course, it all ties in with the lack of true democracy in this brave new world..
