Napoleon is right - you need to understand the difference between competition and using a monopoly to gain advanatage.

M$ have a virtual monopoly and if they use their OS to promote their products to the disadvantage of other businesses and the public they will be caught and punished.

They have been warned but they will try anyway - they will lose more respect and ultimately share value as people turn from them when they come under the scrutiny of the regulators.

Your golf analogy demonstrates that you simply don't understand the problem.
