Top Story: Explosive New Microsoft Tell-All Makes Strong Allegations, By Brett Glass On the heels of allegations this week of power misuse in its relationships with Intel Corp. and Caldera Inc., Microsoft Corp. is about to be stung again by numerous charges of wrongdoing in its business practices throughout the 1990s. Alleged incidents soon to be brought to light include the bugging of a senior IBM executive's Las Vegas hotel room; the pressuring of Europe's largest PC manufacturer to abandon Novell's DR-DOS; and the dissemination of nondisclosure information from Go Corp., allowing Microsoft to clone Go's PenPoint operating system. These episodes--and more--will be made public on September 8, when journalist Wendy Goldman Rohm's book The Microsoft File: The Secret Case Against Bill Gates (Times Books/Random House, 1998), hits retail shelves. Rohm, a long-time member of the computer press whose byline has appeared in Ziff-Davis' PC Week and Inter@ctive Week, has managed to ferret out memos from Microsoft executives previously unavailable to the public. Gaps in the stories get filled in via "insider" accounts from sources from California to Hamburg. Click here for more. chkpt.zdnet.com
