    Just because there is a choice doesn’t mean that the casual user is aware of it. You could always chose to install Firefox on Windows, but Microsoft still got done for pushing IE as the default.

      MS got dinged because they claimed Windows couldn’t work without MSIE, which was a lie… and they had a large market share.

      Nowadays Apple forces everyone to use Safari on iOS, and nobody bats an eye.
