"IBM - Del, Compaq, Apple..."
To be quite honest, I don't think IBM is bigger than the others... Compaq and Apple though they both aren't very good.
Although I agree that at time Microsoft is monopolistic, I can't agree that Microsoft is a monopoly. I understand that several people are trying to delay the release of WinXP, so why isn't anyone trying to delay the release of OS X (Apple's new operating system)? Or how about sueing the Redhat Linux people?
Maybe Microsoft got so big because its products work better than the rest of the products...
(Of course, the practice of Microsoft forcing its OS on some PCs is wrong... the maker should be able to decide and completely from any kind of corporate retribution)
