Will Adobe Scream 'Anti-Competitive' in the Face of a Microsoft Attack?

From the European Commission's Directorate General for Competition perspective it doesn't matter if a program is installed on 98% or 8% of PCs, and they are right, it shouldn't matter as long as it is the customer's choice. The problem with Microsoft was that the programs were bundled with operating system and pre-installed for users, who did not have the right to choose not to install them, except by giving up on the OS or by uninstalling them later. It is about freedom of choice, not about percentages of users.
