Microsoft Judge Opens Door to Broader Remedy | |
|
||
| Time: 00:56 EST/05:56 GMT | News Source: Reuters | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||
|
The federal judge overseeing the Microsoft Corp. antitrust case said on Tuesday she wants to know more about new computer technologies such as handheld devices to determine whether sanctions against Microsoft should cover these items. U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly's request boosted the spirits of nine states seeking stronger antitrust sanctions against Microsoft, who have argued for remedies that protect markets that have arisen since the trial began. | ||

| Handhelds are emerging technologies? Palm dominated the market for years and didn't spend much to improve both hardware and software until MS finally came out with the right product. In fact I didn't bought handheld until then because I did not like Palm. I am wondering if the government is realizing how many companies are moving to Canada, there was a very good article on BusinessWeek about this trend. I just hope they won't allow our lawyers to migrate too. |

lawyer: "So you were the dominant maker of PDAs from 1997-2001?" Palm: "Yessir, we had 90% of the market." lawyer: "And when Microsoft released Windows CE what did you do?" Palm: "We laughed about it a lot. Boy did that first version really suck." lawyer: "Did you think that they offered competition?" Palm: "No sir, it was complete crap. We told ourselves that customers didn't want fancy devices, they were happy with black and white displays and slow processors." lawyer: "So, you didn't think it was worth investing money in R&D to come out with improvements to your existing system?" Palm: "No." lawyer: "And what happened when Microsoft released PocketPC?" Palm: "We crapped our pants. It was so much better than anything we had, and we immediately started losing market share." lawyer: "So why are you before the court today?" Palm: "We want Microsoft stopped. We can't compete against better products, it was so much easier when there was no competition." Microsoft: "We rest our case, your honor." |
