What is ..

I was thinking that if they were, for example, to strongarm every last PC vendor on the planet into paying them their vig whether or not the machines shipped with any Microsoft software installed. Or maybe if they were to deliberately queer everyone elses pitch by pre-installing software for free that does some of what someone elses commercial product would have done, were it to ever be installed now that there is something that mostly works already there.

I mean, if ever they were to do stuff as outrageous as the above THAT would be the big stuff.
