Delay in MSFT Case............Friday October 29 5:41 PM ET

Judge in Microsoft trial delays decision by another week

WASHINGTON (AP) - Bill Gates and the U.S. government will have to wait at least another week for an intitial ruling on the government's antitrust suit against
Gates's Microsoft Corp (NasdaqNM:MSFT - news).

The judge in the Microsoft trial said Friday's he's delaying for at least seven more days announcing the first phase of his verdict, meaning the earliest date for his
decision will be Nov. 5.

Court officials announced last week that the judge's "factual findings" will be issued on an upcoming Friday at 6:30 p.m. in Washington, but they didn't indicate which
Friday.

Under rules adopted by the court, U.S. District Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson's office will notify lawyers in the case after the close of financial markets that a
decision is coming.

But even lawyers won't know the outcome until it is publicly disclosed that evening. Gates, during an appearance Friday in Florida, declined to discuss the antitrust
trial or the judge's pending decision.

The court said a few copies of the findings will be available for the public and reporters at the courthouse, and electronic copies of the decision will be published by
Microsoft and the Justice Department on their own Web sites.

Additionally, the court will post the findings on a Web site specially created by the Government Printing Office, at usvms.gpo.gov. ¸ The Canadian Press, 1999
