Dismantling Microsoft would absolutely be the correct response. That's what they did to Bell or AT&T or whatever they were called, and it was a good thing.

Break up Microsoft into a company that makes Office, a company that makes Windows and a company that does .NET.

Hell, Microsoft already internally operates like that anyway. Might as well take it to its logical conclusion :)
