What you have noted is the effect this trial has had in tying the hands of Microsoft. Billy can't go out and crush everyone because of the trial. For the first time in a long time, the market has some freedom. This is what happens when one company isn't allowed to use the dominance of one product to leverage power in another market. All this growth can be charted against the progression of this trial. To me, the honesty of the new competitors in admitting that they view the trial as "a window of opportunity" is some of the most damning evidence to me.
Wise people know when they really have a choice. There are many intelligent people and very few wise ones. How much choice did you have when you couldn't get an Intel-based PC without Windows?
