>>> The Digital Equipment executives said that the company disbanded a product
development group based here after Gates told Robert Palmer, who at the time was
Digital's chief executive, that a product the group was developing with a Microsoft rival,
Oracle Corp., would threaten an earlier deal for Microsoft to develop a version of its
industrial-strength Windows NT operating system for Digital's powerful new processor.

Gee whiz, I'm new to this, but that sounds to me like using monopoly pressure in one business to try to create a monopoly in another business. I would think that would be illegal! ;-)

BTW, would that have been the long-dead NT for Alpha? (As a long sneer for Robert Palmer crosses my face.)

Cheers,
Chaz
