WASHINGTON, May 8 (Reuters) - State attorneys general will not halt the launch of Windows 98 but intend to challenge restrictions that Microsoft Corp. wants to place on computer makers, a source close to their discussions said on Friday. The source said the attorneys general would oppose the "exploitation of Windows 98 for monopolistic purposes, which might require some change in the marketing of the product if not its basic structure. The objective is not necessarily to block or forestall any particular product from release or sale."
