The government alleges that Microsoft employees offered to divide the browser market with
Netscape at a June 21, 1995, meeting. Under the proposal, Microsoft would get to make browsers
for Windows 95 and Netscape would have what was left. Gates said that Microsoft might offer to
invest in Netscape to help it make the decision.

Under intense questioning, Maritz conceded that if Netscape had accepted the Microsoft offer,
''There would have been elements of platform competition that would have been avoided, but there
would have been elements that would have been continued and strengthened.'' Maritz said that
Netscape could have gone and competed with Microsoft in a different arena.
