  Let's be clear: A score in the low 70s is a "C-" at best. There's plenty of room for improvement here. These industries encompass two Dow Jones (DJINDICES: ^DJI  ) components, but membership in that elite club doesn't score any points in consumer satisfaction. AT&T's (NYSE: T  ) U-Verse service scores a dismal 65 in the Internet category and a somewhat more respectable 71 in the TV service field. The Dow's two telecoms would be laughed out of nearly any other industry, given these dismal ACSI scores.

  Theodore Roosevelt's ascent to the presidency following President William McKinley's assassination revived the Sherman Antitrust Act from near-death, and it was finally used to dismantle a company in 1904. That year, the Northern Securities railroad trust -- controlled by J.P. Morgan and John D. Rockefeller, among others -- was found to control an unreasonably large part of American railroad traffic, and was broken back up into its component railroads. This reestablished the Act as a potent weapon against monopolies, and it was used many times over the following century against major companies, if not always successfully. Here are some of the landmark decisions issued under an interpretation of the Sherman Antitrust Act, with brief explanations provided below (you can also click on their links for more information):

  Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey v. United States, 1911. United States v. Alcoa (NYSE: AA  ) , 1945. United States v. AT&T (NYSE: T  ) , 1982. United States v. United States Steel (NYSE: X  ) , 1920. United States v. Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT  ) , 2001. United States v. American Tobacco, 1911.

  The Standard Oil breakup in 1911 is the most important turning point of the Act's early history. It set a standard for "reasonableness" that has since been applied many times to determine what made a monopoly truly anticompetitive. Between this decision and the one that broke the American Tobacco trust several weeks later, the Supreme Court of 1911 is responsible for creating three long-tenured members of the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI  ) -- two of which (both oil companies) are still on the index today.
