Internet Explorer - Ch. 58 - Google & Microsoft

Hardware monopoly? What? Microsoft doesn't have a monopoly on anything. Be it now or before. Least of all on Hardware of all things.
 
@TetraSky Microsoft has dominated the OS market with windows for more than three decades and effectively holds a monopoly on PC users, unless you somehow believe Linux and Mac even come close to it
 
@TetraSky - yeah, they did. Try buying a non corporate pc with no windows in 90s to early 2000s. Only now manufacturers might offer 1 or 2 models with ubuntu or freedos. Otherwise you were forcee into windows and all that came with it be it IE or microsoft word. MS word in some sense is still a monoply due to them bribing standards into accepting docx

Atough she's being hipocrite, it's true that ms did had a monopoly on software (but only on PCs and even then, this one is not enforced anymore so it's very fragile and any error they do will make linux widespread faster). But, in the context of the story, ms doesn't act evil, so far she's being very sweet and google is being the bitch here, so I don't understand what she wants by blaming ms like that.
 
Chrome was pretty good at start in times when firefox was lagging n freezing like shit, but then situation got reversed
