10.11.99: Microsoft may be forced to unbundle its Internet Explorer browser from the Windows operating system, according to a former US Department of Justice (DoJ) lawyer. Robert Hauberg, former US DoJ lawyer and partner at Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell, claimed that given the strength of Judge Jackson's support for the government's case, an enforced unbundling is very likely. "Certainly unbundling would be one in a whole laundry list of options that the Judge has," he said. "I would think that in light of the testimony at trial, he would seriously consider doing that at a minimum even without having the divestiture option fully imposed," Hauberg said.
