Story: What vendors really mean by 'open source'
Interesting...
Yes I agree that Microsoft virtually destroyed Netscape as they have done with other companies in the past, but it is the nature of the beast. IBM was nearly broken up for being an aggressive monopoly. You could argue that any large organization that is dominant in their market place as an aggressive monopoly.
Regarding the Mozilla foundation they have been funded by various people and companies for years, so they have not been working for free.
Time is money so respond if you have the time :)
