You really had to be there to understand the emotions involved. It was like a real life version of Star Wars with the Rebel Alliance (GNU / Linux / BSD et al.) against the Galatic Empire (Microsoft).
People protested and made it into a social movement that has since become mainstream:
Some places to investigate for your own education: 'The Halloween Documents', 'AARD Code', 'Embrace, Extend, Extinguish', 'STAC software stolen, DriveSpace released','Exclusionary Licensing', 'Sendo', 'XBox 360 Disk Failures Suppressed', 'Microsoft Litigation', etc, etc, etc.
Here. I'll get you started with the 'Halloween Documents' - http://www.catb.org/~esr/halloween/
And how violently ugly are those file structures. (Compared, e.g., to .fodt)
Other companies might have a monopoly on Web ads, but Microsoft has been convicted. That's amazing. And evil.
