Personally, I hope microsoft gets completely stomped in the marketplace. You were right earlier when you said I hated microsoft. It's not a blind hatred, but is one earned from experience. I got tired of dealing with what passes for 'interoperability' from microsoft years ago among other things.
You don’t want to argue about it, and you proceed to argue about it.
Are you capable of making up your mind?
However, your arguments don’t hold water.
Microsoft did not control the gaming console business, and, they weren’t in it at all, yet, after a few years of floundering and taking huge losses, they dominate the gaming system market. They weren’t in the OS business at all when they entered it, and they have dominated that area for the better part of 3 decades. They didn’t even have an entry in the internet browser arena, and they entered it, and dominated it for a good one and a half decade, and, if it weren’t for legal actions taken to kill that dominance, they would still have about 90% or more of that market. They didn’t dominate the word processing arena, and they have a stranglehold in that area too. Most companies do what it takes to compete and, if possible, to dominate, even if at times, barriers are the way of doing it. Right now, Google and Apple are setting up all sorts of barriers so that, their leading products and services can stay dominant. Why is it okay for some but not for Microsoft?
Your hatred for Microsoft if blind, no matter how much you deny it.
It’s pure idiocy to hate a company, just because they tend to dominate once they’re determined to enter and STAY in that area. Your hatred irrational, and, it’s damaging to any decisions you make in the future in the technology field and in the workplace.
