Microsoft settlement fix is in

Saturday, November 2nd, 2002

Bill Gates There is celebration in Redmond as the anti-trust settlement written by Microsoft has now been approved by a judge. There’s to be no breakup of the company, no forced disclosure of source code, certainly no multi-billion-dollar fine levied at the company, which is still guilty of violating antitrust law.

Looks like Microsoft’s $1 million bribe to the Republican Party has paid off big. The Ashcroft Justice Department has been their shameless ally in getting this sweetheart deal.
