Getting tired of this nonsense

Comparing Apple and Microsoft on these grounds is ridiculous. We're talking about Microsoft, a convicted monopoly. You know what ? When Apple has over 80% of the market, well then YES, it will also get attacked for bundling a browser with its OS. Meanwhile, leave Apple with its peanut share out of the picture. Happy ?

No Coincidence

Microsoft is not against the T3 troll complaint against IBM as IBM is not against the Opera complaint. IBM and Microsoft would never do that. After all they are not even European companies, so why interfere in antitrust matters of foreign nations.

rob beard apple are getting used for that

apple are under the microscope about their OS, its under the spotlight even more now, because its X86 and windows is very compatible. so apple allow you to install vista, right? with a program they make called boot camp.

however OSX is only installable on apple products, and ONLY them. Why? they allow windows on their systems, heck they even give u a program to do it. but PC users cant install OS X on their X86, unless they buy apple hardware.
Ive said it a lot, but jobs could tap at least a billion dollars by allowing OS X on non apple hardware. all they need is a Nvidia driver, ATI, creative any other mainstream hardware, once they have these pre-installed it would work well
but in the absence of that that is a monopoly my friend

Pot meet kettle

WTF?

Microsoft's software doesn't even run on IBM big iron, at least not any more. I hardly think that it's anti-trust that IBM are supplying their own OS with their mainframes.

What next, Apple get sued for supplying MacOS X with Macs?

Microsoft denies

Microsoft could also deny that it did not fund SCO failed legitigation against IBM about Unix source code in Linux.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
