  The perils of regulating Microsoft
Time: 09:30 EST/14:30 GMT | News Source: MSNBC | Posted By: Alex Harris

A new version of Microsoft's flagship Windows operating system will soon hit stores across the European Union. But there will be little advertising or promotion to support the launch. Indeed, Microsoft will probably be hoping the new product will prove a complete flop.

The reason for this strange lack of ambition is that Microsoft never wanted Windows XP Home Edition N, as the new version will be called, to see the light of day. Rather, the group was forced to release it as part of last year's landmark antitrust decision by the European Commission.
