Nonsense. They didn’t reach a judgement until 5 years after Microsoft’s 1997 investment in Apple, and it was appealed until 2007

That was the 2nd time they got in trouble. Not the first where the government was poking around on them for OS monopoly practices. You’re talking about what happened around 1998 and it was mostly for using its size to crush Netscape as a web browser by bundling their own Microsoft browser for free, along with some other software bundled things. That suit had nothing to do with being a monopoly over operating systems or PC hardware. In other words, it had nothing to do with anything Apple was involved with at the time.
