Does it really matter if they were forced to open source it or not? The point is they poured a ton of money into Webkit and that did a lot of good for the industry as a whole.

How were the goal posts moved? Apple's claim: they made open source software a big part of their strategy. Were they forced to? Well, they could have just not used KHTML, but yes, once they chose that they were forced to. But it was open source, and it was a big part of their strategy.
