Late yesterday, MICROSOFT CORP said the company sees "no merit" to a SUN MICROSYSTEMS INC effort to get a preliminary injunction against the company's Windows 98 operating system. Tom Burt, Microsoft's associate general counsel, said the software giant has not yet been served with motions filed under seal by Sun in U.S. District Court in San Jose. "Based on what Sun has said publicly about the papers... there is no merit at all to Sun's preliminary injunction motions," Burt said. Burt and other Microsoft executives on the call said they did not expect Sun to be successful in its request for a preliminary injunction, and they declined to say what the impact of such a measure might be.

The appellate court order -- which will have no effect on any new antitrust case that states or the Justice Department may file -- said the government had a "very weak" chance of winning a permanent injunction against Windows 98 under the old U.S. District Court case from last year.
