Here let me help you: ALL CORPORATIONS ARE NOT THE SAME!
Some corporations try to maintain a good image in the public and align their interests to the majority of their users' interests so that when they make money, the users also benefit. Other corporations like Microsoft cannot do that. When Microsoft makes a lot of money, their users inevitably get screwed over. Get that into your think skull!
Stop trying to repeat the same old shit that Google is only in it to make money. No fucking shit. Every corporation is the same but that is not the fucking point.
I apologize for all the invective to others but this is the only way I can get a point across to someone like hairy.
It was further alleged that this restricted the market for competing web browsers (such as Netscape Navigator or Opera) that were slow to download over a modem or had to be purchased at a store.

Sigh...hi, again NicknameOne.
Why hello there bonch or overly critical guy or whatever you are calling yourself these days
Their share in that space is even larger than Microsoft's in the desktop computer space.
No it's not. This is a bald-faced lie which makes the rest of your argument irrelevant.
You don't need to keep replying to inactive discussions. We both know you won't change my mind and I won't change yours. May as well just go back to the natural order of things where you anonymously reply to my first posts using your puppet accounts and accuse me of being a random succession of people. You strengthen my posts and draw more moderation points like a sponge.
Unlike you I don't care about moderation points because I don't have an agenda to drive. I just want to make the record clear for posterity what an idiot you - bonch - are and how your employer is paying to bash Google and promote Apple.
If their market share gets high enough, being a monopoly is not bad in and of itself. Abusing the monopoly is (which Microsoft did) but Google doesn't make it hard to switch advertisers. So you're full of it as usual.
Do we need more confirmation you are a Microsoft shill? Microsoft did not receive a cent from any of the Android manufacturers (prove me wrong by providing a link to an article that is not speculating about the amount exchanged.) No terms have been made public. Microsoft is paying everyone to actually generate such positive press.
The device manufacturers probably laughed in their face when Microsoft went to them pan in hand.
Serious give it a rest. You are clearly and idiot and a Microsoft shill (but I repeat myself).
Idiots like you are making slashdot unreadable these days first by not letting all articles get to the front page using your alternate accounts and the by your top posting with your anti-Google and pro-Microsoft agenda. It's getting fucking annoying.
This idiot is the same guy that also owns all the other shill accounts like cmdrpony, insignin140bytes and interestingfella. The other accounts got karma bombed to oblivion so I guess they are no longer posting in tech articles so they can regain their karma and start shilling again.
Overly Critical Guy supporting bonch again
I'm shocked!
