Just few years ago Netscape got most of its revenues from its Internet browser, but when Microsoft began putting the Internet browser into its Windows software, Netscape’s share has dropped from 73 percent to 58 percent. But instead of improving its product, “Netscape and other rivals ganged up on Microsoft, ran to Washington and got the trust-busters to launch an attack”. (Salsman, n.d.). Microsoft argued that the charges are under substantiated and that the decision to attach the Explorer to the Windows was made before the Netscape was even created. Also, Microsoft argued, there is nothing in its license agreement that stops computer producers from adding Netscape’s browser or other competitors’ software along with the Windows operating system. Manager of Netscape’s corporate public relations, Chris Holton, stated “What Netscape and many other software companies want and what everyone in the world should demand is a level playing field in the software industry so people have a choice.” (Chris Holton, 1997) But the people do have a choice. Compaq’s vice-president John Rose says that Compaq installs on their computers both Internet browsers – that is the Microsoft browser and also the Netscape one, and that it is up to the customer which one they will choose to use. And that is true. The manufacturers put on their computer more than just one software. Thomas Sowell confirms that. “My own computer came with non-Microsoft software, including Netscape, on the Windows 95 screen – and I didn’t even order Netscape” (Sowell, n.d.). Just because people buy their computer with Microsoft installed on it already, it does not mean that they have to use it. They can go and choose any other competing operating system for their computer. They are also able to buy a personal computer that is already running something else than a Microsoft product. They can also keep the computer they already have and get another operating system for it. So there is plenty of choice. And if there is plenty of choice, then Microsoft cannot be a monopoly. Simply because a monopoly is when there is only one company in an industry, providing a certain kind of service. In such a case, people are able to buy that kind of product from only one place. And that is not true about Microsoft. “There are at least NINE operating systems you can use instead of Windows, in the US alone, so anyone can get and use an operating system that is not Microsoft’s…. monopoly means one choice, not then choices” (Vorpal, n.d.).
