I'm not surprised... Microsoft has been known to have a monopoly on everything from OS to Internet browsers. They might have taken it too far this time though.

The point is....

Now that the EU have fined them..it opens doors for many over orgs.

And that means in future MS will be forced to supply base code for their OS to ther ppl..like linux, bsd etc.

The PC world will remmeber this day...trust me
