Alvin Toffler on Microsoft and the antitrust suit

I have mixed feelings on Microsoft.  I believe that antitrust suit or no antitrust suit, no monopoly lasts forever.  Technological change will produce challengers to Microsoft just as it has produced challengers to every leading company.  That doesn't mean Microsoft goes up in smoke.  But I think it cannot maintain the degree of power that it has indefinitely, and that is without the lawsuit.
