MS to appeal, comply with injunction news.com

Confirmation on what's being offered to OEMs, and what's on the shelf at your neighborhood PCs-R-US, Harvey:

"The intent of the court was not for Microsoft to hold out an option that is so undesirable to users," he added. "It's Microsoft's attempt to bring public scorn and outrage on who's responsible, and it's saying the court is responsible."

A Microsoft representative took issue with Black's statement. "That is not accurate," said spokesman Greg Shaw. "The court precisely followed the approach requested by the DOJ. By providing the retail version of Windows, we're doing exactly what the court and the DOJ recommended."


If it's good enough to be the best-selling software title at retail, it's good enough for the OEMs. Once more, through the looking glass into Windows World.

Cheers, Dan.
