MS also attempting to use its monopoly position on the desktop to damage a competitor, there's no heroes in this fight.

I say attempting because, thank goodness, MS no longer has the stranglehold that it used to have - due to Google attempting itself trying to get a stranglehold on all computing devices that people use through Android.

I'm surprised that Fuchsia hasn't made an appearance yet as that will probably also be pitched as a competitor to Windows, hoping to further erode MS's position in the market.

I kinda hope they make Fuchsia a full-fledged desktop OS other than the same online-only offering that Chromium was.
