According to an article on The Register this morning, a leak from the European Commission suggests that Microsft may be fined “less than one per cent of the company’s $51 billion cash chest”. I’d certainly be disappointed if this were the case, as this would most certainly not be a disincentive to Microsoft to continue their illegal anti-competitive policies.
Let’s hope Commissioner Mario Monti has something better up his sleeve! Well, we’ll know tomorrow anyway.
