I don't see why selling at a loss would warrant exclusion. If anything, that just grants these companies the power to undercut incentives for competition that would allow fair competition. Apple treats their iPhones like Microsoft and Sony treat their consoles: some kind of brand experience that makes you part of a distinguished group of Brand Name customers who enjoy their Brand Name lifestyle. If we're preventing Apple and Google from pulling this bullshit, we should take on consoles too. It doesn't really matter what functionality consoles offer or not. These things could run Windows if it weren't for the DRM that locks them down, and some Chinese stores will sell you boards using the same CPU/GPU but running Windows instead. They have HDMI, USB ports, ethernet, and all the hardware to be used as a serious device. Their OS and APIs are a bit weird but I can't see a reason why you couldn't used them as a basic home PC if you install a browser and an office suite, other than that their vendors won't let you download software outside of their walled gardens.
