Bundling IE was never the problem. Using private APIs to give IE a noticeable advantage over other, more popular browsers in an effort to gain marketshare for IE was the problem. Having a monopoly isn't illegal, and is part of capitalism. Using a monopoly in one market (say, operating systems) gain share in another (like, browsers) is.

To me the issue with IE and Windows was that MS went from a position where IE basically didn't exist (but other browsers did and worked fine on it's OS) to "it couldn't possibly not be tightly integrated into Windows" in no time at all.

Funny how Microsoft owned 90%+ of installs globally. Just because everyone copies apple doesn't mean everyone uses apple and needs to bend to their will. It's the opposite actually.
