Actually, MS was a monopolist back in 1996, and was found to abused that position in 2001. The EU finally got around to going after MS in 2004. And I'm not necessarily against the fines imposed in 2004. They served their purpose, and changed how MS operates, just as intended. The last few actions have little bearing in reality and look to be purely vindictive. This last one is completely stupid. MS agrees with the EU, decides not to include IE, and now they want to continue the investigation. Total crap.
Ohh, and don't forget that plenty of your Central Banks knew about the "sub-loans" and still purchased them, even with all of your regulation. Seems regulation might not be the only issue, greed seems to play a pretty big part, also.
