  Government Won't Block Windows XP's Release
Time: 04:30 EST/09:30 GMT | News Source: Los Angeles Times | Posted By: Viper

Thanks Robin! Concerned about a possible backlash, federal and state antitrust officials are not planning to ask a court to block the impending shipment of Microsoft Corp.'s controversial new operating system, Windows XP, government sources said. Though the strategy could change, attorneys at the Justice Department and 18 states that are already pressing antitrust charges against Microsoft fear they would be criticized for hurting the ailing computer industry, which is counting on Windows XP to boost PC sales later this year, the sources said. Government attorneys remain concerned about Windows XP. But rather than try to block its release with a preliminary injunction, they plan to raise the issue in coming hearings about how to punish Microsoft for its illegal behavior, according to the sources. Alternatively, the government could insist that Windows XP be addressed in any voluntary settlement.
