1. Got a reference for that?

2. You stated that "Microsoft was never found to have engaged in
   monopolistic behavior" but I believe the US Govt and European

Had you said that: "Microsoft does not meet the legal definition
of a monopoly" I'd have less of a problem. That's a close call
at best. But you didn't say that ;-)
