Microsoft told the hearing Thursday the technical manual met industry standards. Six technology companies testified that they were using the manual to create software compatible with Microsoft's products. It named four of them as EMC Corp., StarBak Communications Inc., Tandberg Television Ltd. and Network Appliances. I'm no lawyer or regulator but how can anyone claim the manual is unusable when in fact named companies are using them to create software??? That said I still think MSFT will be fined because emotions may have taken over for the EU. I doubt MSFT can do anything to satisfy the commission. Wait till Vista is released, the commission will most likely start new proceedings but hopefully I'm wrong.
