  1. @omni So that means Microsoft saw a market and decided to swoop in on it. Those kinds of things happen all the time in big business. It brings the money in. Are the ethics questionable? Certainly. But "unfair advantage" and "market leverage" are just part of business. In fact, this whole argument seems to be an issue of free software vs big business, and the two are about as wildly incompatible as you can get. They have completely different goals, necessitating completely different motives with completely different moral compasses.
