MS are convicted felons in both the US and EU but they dragged out and were able to avoid much in the way of penalties. Now it is old history and most people have forgotten and forgiven. They have not changed their behavior unfortunately. They are becoming increasingly irrelevant and desperately need a winner despite their wealth. They used to be the most respected brand and now are barely in the top ten. Apple has eclipsed them in so many ways. As desktop PCs fade and their server market declines they will be in trouble. They have had few successes and are slow to respond to change. It is usually too little and too late. People buy their OS because they don't know any better or have no choice and not because they want to. Compare that to Apple where out has a cult like following.
