Whitepaper on the Negative Impact of Microsoft Desktop Monopoly on Australian Consumers
"In the software market, as in the telecommunications market, a single, powerful and well-leveraged vendor can cause the reduction of real competition and the corralling of almost all consumers into a single monopolistic platform situation.
