"Even today, MS is perfectly free to make deals with competitors without worrying about antitrust scrutiny (and, in fact, deals were a part of the settlement between MS and Apple over certain antitrust matters)"

False, Microsoft can't take a figurative piss without someone saying they are fucking everyone else over.

Google and Yahoo make up around like 90% of the search business, if they join, how the hell would that not be monopolistic?

They're not joining.  They have a non-exclusive deal for search advertising purposes.

Don't worry -- they can't compete with MS.  MS said, after all, that Google is just a house of cards and that they were going to make windows live search competitive.  *snicker*
