Why is everyone solely focus on MS as a console maker? If you look at the history of DOS and Windows they essentially wouldn't exist as a company without lying, cheating, and stealing their way to the top. Windows was no an idea developed by MS, it was outright stolen from Xerox. They also didn't do much of anything to make DOS, since they sorta conned a guy into selling it to them for far less than it was worth and claimed it was their own work.

Playing dirty is the only way to make a company go from nothing to ruling the world in a decade, so it's hard to fault them for this, but their record still comes out looking much uglier than Sony's or Nintendo's.

 

Um, because the name of this forum is "Gaming Discussion."

As a side note, Microsoft's antics were actually pretty innocent compared to IBM's...
