There are laws against using monopoly power against your competition,
too. That didn't appear to stop Microsoft much there, either. :-)

FWIW, we once setup an NT 4.0 SP6 server at a customer site, but due to a
SNAFU on their part, couldn't hook it up to the LAN for a couple weeks. All
it was running were the built-in file, print, DNS, DHCP, and WINS server
software. It crashed twice during that time. Just sitting there. (Since it
was hooked up to the LAN, it has been "fine" (knock on wood). Perhaps there
are bugs related to *lack* of demand in Windoze, too?)
