DOJ, Microsoft to summon witnesses www5.zdnet.com
For the DOJ, it will be Glenn Weadock, president of Independent Software Inc., a Denver-based consulting firm that he co-founded in 1982.
Haven't heard of him, but he sounds knowledgable enough, also pretty brave:
Weadock's firm has a client list that reads like a Who's Who of the Fortune 500 including Ford Motor Co., MCI, US West, and interestingly, the U.S. Department of Justice.
Weadock, who has written a half-dozen different books on both networking as well as Windows 95 and client/server computing, is also a Microsoft beta tester. Among the products he is signed up to test include Windows 98 and Windows NT 5.0; he's also done previous work beta testing Windows 95 and PowerPoint 97.
Someone running a Microsoft-dependant business going against them here? Maybe he figures with enough visibility, he'll be safe from retaliation. We'll see what he has to say.
Cheers, Dan.
P.S. Things seem a little shakey at SI. Perhaps that Bonk fix isn't complete? Maybe those bonk guys spend too much time reading "how high", and need to check things out around here. |
