I'm questioning whether a free product can be considered subject to pricing
law. Consider this possibility, Linux becomes the new standard running 95%
of the computers, can everyone else now claim it's predatory pricing? That
just doesn't seem right to me, I can drink free water or I can drink
bottled water, I don't see the bottled water people claiming predatory
pricing.
