Microsoft wants fast appeal zdnet.com

The Redmond, Wash.-based company said last week's decision by U.S. District Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson was "an unprecedented judicial intrusion into basic product design" that forces it to offer a Windows 95 version that "does not currently exist and will not work."

Would that be the retail Windows 95 that the OEMs are being given the option of licensing? Can retail customers get it repaired under warranty? Is this what's know as giving the customers what they want?

Microsoft asked the District of Columbia U.S. Court of Appeals to permit expedited arguments and then move to a swift decision on whether to overturn Jackson's order, which the company said affected both Windows 95 and its successor, Windows 98.

Of course the never-wrong antitrust expert assured us here that the OS formerly known as Window 97 wasn't affected, or maybe he didn't, I have this well known reading comprehension problem, especially with stuff I'm not supposed to be reading in the first place.

Cheers, Dan.
