You're right on both statements. Some think that one of the reasons that Microsoft got sued was because it didn't have any lobbyists (or only a couple, if any) and the other tech firms had quite a few.

And others think it was because they were a monopoly that was illegally using it's monopoly power to crush other companies and stifle competition.

But hey, that's only what the US Courts, Circuit and Appelate, thought after reviewing all of the evidence, even the evidence that Microsoft's lawyers got caught forging.

I wonder what the response would have been if it had been some company like, say, CBS that got caught faking evidence....

Oh, wait....
