I fear this greatly, MS has a lot of money, and their methods of business have always seemed extremely succesful even if often immoral. I would hate for them to expand into all these key technology areas and forge monopolies.
Will the public accept this? The mass market already expects a great deal from mobile phones, video-consoles etc. and won't accept shoddy merchandise. But they might, they do it already with MS software because MS software looks pretty and has one or two very gimicky but neat features that people like.
I don't want one company to have that much power, what would they do with it?
Finally, ousting Gates? Not likely to happen is it? It would probably work though, just as that guy said.
