The last time antitrust action was taken against Microsoft (United States v. Microsoft Corp., filed in 2001), law folks' tech-illiteracy and Microsoft's slitheriness led to a penalty of merely having to publish API documentation. The aim had been to make Windows an interface that competitors could implement.
I hope Microsoft gets served for antitrust again, and that this time a savvier legal community can actually achieve the goal is the first suit.
