Be Inc. , the failed maker of a computer operating system hailed by some as an elegant rival to Microsoft Corp.'s dominant Windows platform, said on Tuesday it is suing the software giant for allegedly destroying its business through anti-competitive practices.
Be, which sold most of its assets last year to handheld computer maker Palm Inc. , said in a filing in federal court in San Francisco that Microsoft struck deals with PC makers barring them from installing more than one operating system on computers they sold.
