Microsoft is to pay for made too expensive software payment of damages

Three lawyers want to sue Microsoft, because the software giant is to have used its monopoly to sell in order Windows 95 and Windows 98 makes too expensive. The New York Times in their current output reports. Terry large, Daniel Mogin and Francis Scarpulla want to submit an appropriate collecting complaint (Class Action Suit) with the California Superior Court in San Francisco.

As many customers are affected by Microsofts price strategy, the lawyers did not number; The number estimated large however on approximately ten million alone in California. Also the extent of the financial damage, which is to have developed for the consumer, must be determined only in the course of a process. The complaint is to be further led also if Microsoft and the US Ministry of Justice agree during the trust process out of court.

After the proof appreciation during the anti- Trust process observer had already briefly predicted a wave of such damage suits. Reacted the New Yorker advertising agency Seastrom Associates Ltd. fastest, which requested week in New York a similar collecting complaint, already passed. (you find a detailed report for proof appreciation during the Microsoft process in the current c't output 24/99.) (wst/ c't)
