> The formula also includes factory financing which slows competitor access to manufacturing capacity.
I'm talking about the formula that seduced the customer. "Factory financing" did not seduce the customer - one company in charge of the whole computer (as opposed to one company making the hardware and another making the software) is what seduced the consumer. The fact that company makes computers for end users, not company employees, is what seduced the consumer.
> Careful intervention can help to restore balance.
Like non-violent spanking, careful intervention is an oxymoron. Unless you can show an example where no one was harmed by government anti-trust laws being applied.
