Microsoft has got 90% of the computer market by the balls. They don't
really need any other tricks than that (such as DRM or whatever). For
Apple or any company, it's a lot easier to expand themselves in a place
where Microsoft isn't already. I think that you understand that Microsoft
got its 90% not just by selling quality software, and that you understand
why so many shops absolutely refuse to sell a computer without Windows
even though there's a market for it. Isn't this the most damaging thing
going on every day in the industry ?
