A clear case of using their monopoly in OSes and Office Suites to expand
into other areas.  No other company could sustain the losses MS has had
with Xbox, but all they have to do is raise the price of Windows a buck or
two.

I believe it's illegal to sell such a product at such a loss, but MS seems
to get away with illegal activities all the time.
