FINALLY, Microsoft blames its much publicized video demonstration woes in the federal antitrust trial last week on a bug. After the contreptemps in Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson's court, Microsoft technicians were flown to Washington, DC, to determine why the PC in the Microsoft video had "Internet Explorer" instead of "Windows 98" on the browser's title bar.
