How Microsoft is Building a Global Monopoly
A NetAction White Paper

When you add in the recent revalations about XP and Microsoft's
blatant disregard for security which is combined with over 90% control
of the personal computer desktop marketplace, these should be enough
significant reasons to question Microsoft's application and operating
system design criteria and their proven monopolistic business practices.
For Microsoft to refuse to recognize these fundamental problems is a lot
like the 1950's and 1960's American automotive industry when they
continued to not address the publics concerns about building safer
products.
