WebClip: DOJ To Oversee Windows 7 Development
Posted in Syndicated by at 8:39 pm
Windows 7 is already being reviewed by U.S. government technical appointees. Under the terms of Microsoft’s November 2001 Justice Department settlement, and final court judgment issued about a year later, a government-sanctioned ‘Technical Committee’ has been formed to oversee Windows development. The TC is responsible for ensuring that Microsoft complies with the terms of the final judgment, investigating complaints about Microsoft abuses and regularly reporting on the company’s compliance.”

This is bullshit. I understand that MS had the antitrust litigation but they didn’t do anything about Vista, which includes every bundled app you can think of and could be grounds for antitrust., so how can they justify this?
