States grill Microsoft's computer expert | |

A computer expert testifying for Microsoft conceded Friday that it would be possible to remove features from the company's Windows operating system even if technically difficult. University of Colorado computer science professor John Bennett had testified Thursday that a version of Windows with removable features was "technically infeasible." Questioned by an attorney for nine states seeking stiff antitrust sanctions against the software giant, Bennett said anything was possible with software. "It's a question of the degree of difficulty and the amount of work that would be required," said Bennett, Microsoft's last witness at the hearings, now in their eighth week. The states say a modular version of Windows, allowing features like the Internet browser and media player to be removed, would help level the competitive playing field for non-Microsoft software. | ||
