"reasonable and non-discriminatory" terms.

What M$ calls, "reasonable and non-discriminatory", is that they are allowed to do as they please, and too bad about all us other poor suckers. After all, look at what they have given us, worms, trojans,
botnets, stolen data through their lack of security, high cost for
insecure software, and try to buy a computer without an OS. Oh yeah, they want to do what's "reasonable and non-discriminatory."
