ESSAY ON: The Impact of the Microsoft Case on Consumers

Number of Pages 6

This research paper: A 6 page paper discussing Microsoft as the monopoly that does not fully qualify as one and the likely results on consumers of the recent settlement of the US Justice Department’s antitrust case against the company. Industry pressures have kept realized prices of Microsoft products low, far below levels that would qualify Microsoft as having monopolistic control of the operating system and Internet browser markets. The single result that most directly will affect consumers is that we now can delete Internet Explorer® icons from our desktops and can designate another browser as being default much more easily. In short, there is likely to be little if any direct effect on the consumer. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
