1. Comment - Report: EU Close to Fining Microsoft

   (Jun 27, 2006 - 6:19 PM)

   This fine means nothing for the EU moneywise.. they already get over 1% of the European GDP resulting in like $160 billion. (it's an intergovernmental union after all)
   
   The EU doesn't need to dream of linux (though i woudnt mind it if they went that way) and could just revoke the copyright, IP etc on M$ software. Now that would be a laugh.
   
   M$ can pull out.. but i seriously doubt they will do that. Stock will drop to mutch. Not to mention even more negative PR.
   
   They're breaking the law (again). The US convicted them. Now the EU did so as well. If you break the law you need to be punished. period.
   
   M$ is _not_ asked to show or open up source code. They are asked to properly document some of their stuff. They failed to do so judged by someone _they_ appointed.
