First and foremost, Microsoft is a company that has extraordinarily profitable monopoly power in PC operating systems and office productivity software. Job one is to protect the cash cow. A more open and competitive environment that does not routinely exploit and lock-in users will likely erode these extraordinary profits. I don't see Microsoft being drawn to products and services that make users better off, so much as defending their special status. Jamie On Dec 10, 2005, at 11:46 PM, David Farber wrote:
