They also did that stuff with DR-DOS, they've been pulling dirty tricks with all their competition since the beginning with little or no consequences.

And people whine because their laptops sometimes don't work with Linux when it's actually a fucking miracle that almost all machines currently work flawlessly despite all the hardware having been specifically designed to be hostile to anything that isn't Windows.
