If Bill Gates and Microsoft have their way...... Microsoft=SkyNet
Pull the plug while we can. Not many industries in a free market are allowed
such monopolies. What is the percentage of market share???? 90 plus percent.
This is only good for Microsoft and not the people. PC's with a Microsoft OS are nothing but a honey pot for a plethera of dangerous viruses, spyware, adware, worms, trojans, etc, etc. coming from the cesspool that is called the Internet.

"Pull the plug while we can."

You and who?
Stalin or Mao?
Why don't you just try it?

"Not many industries in a free market are allowed such monopolies."

Nobody "allowed" nuthin'
Gates set out and created his own software company from nothing.
No government subsidies like the EU Ariburst. Nothing.
You might try starting your own software company one day and see how it is like.
