The European Commission has released its decision and found Microsoft guilty of leveraging its monopoly of its very own Windows operating system. Seems like a foolish conclusion overall and of course Microsoft plans to appeal the ruling so payment on the monetary fine of $613 million USD may be delayed for years but the EU may require Microsoft to ship a version of its OS without Windows Media Player loaded and provide “programming codes” to server software vendors during the appeals process. CNN has the rest of this mess.
