It's got nothing to do with monopoly!!! Apple or Linux have nothing to do with it; the ruling being for behaviour in the period that preceded 2000. Microsoft were in a dominant position in one market and leveraged this dominace to gain dominance in another. This is anti-competative. for the final time; a monopoly is not illeagal in and of itself, neither is it antitrust.
There's actually no evidence that your claim about leverage is true. Microsoft simply built a better browser and marketed it better than Netscape.
It's also a fact that the DoJ lost the browser case: it was overturned 2-1 on appeal.
Looks like someone didn't read my post :)
