How is it anti-trust to make vendors have a secure boot but also require them to allow users to disable it? And on the RT side, how is it anti-trust to do exactly what Apple does in a market where Microsoft has exactly zero penetration?

Double standard. It seems people are willing to let it slide with Apple but not with Microsoft. Even Mozilla came out decrying Microsoft's policy of not allowing third party browsers but never said a peep about iOS. There's no use throwing a fit just because Microsoft is doing it when you let the actual tablet monopoly get away with it for so long.
