U.S., Microsoft Talks Collapse

WASHINGTON (AP) - Antitrust negotiations between Microsoft Corp. and government lawyers collapsed today, and the Justice Department and at least 20 states are expected to file two separate but similar federal antitrust lawsuits Monday morning in U.S. District Court in Washington. After Microsoft delayed shipping Windows 98 to computer makers last week, the states and the Justice Department also delayed filing the lawsuits in favor of negotiating. Federal lawyers and state attorneys general contend that Microsoft, whose Windows software is used on virtually all desktop computers, illegally used its market power to suffocate competition, especially in the market for Internet browsers.
