- GrandMasterBirt 17y agoWoa woa woa, clearly MS has the monopoly on minesweeper, nobody cares about Solitaire.
- rbanffy 17y agoNo. Because Solitaire is not a platform. What Microsoft is being punished for is abusing its desktop OS monopoly (which was, BTW, acquired through all sort of shady backroom deals) to hijack and prevent technological advancements that could render its clients independent of its desktop software, thus inflating its profits by artificially reducing competition. Sorry for the humorless reply, but this is an important subject and it has been shown, over and over, any misconception about it is abused to portrait Microsoft in a more favorable light.
