              "The Commission ordered the software giant to offer a version of its Windows operating system without Windows Media Player within 90 days. "

              Yeah that's brilliant. They should sell it for the same price, and charge another $50 per user to get the player.

              I wonder what's going to happen to the stock price today.

                    You know, if it weren't for all of the employes that depend on the company for a living, Bill Gates could teach a few lessons (and really screw the world up) by saying, "I have enough money, and I've had enough litigation. You get your wish....goodbye".

                      Ordered the company to stop illegally crushing software rivals.

                      What rivals?

                      Proving once again that eu countries are a failure and can't compete in the real world.

                            It's up over a percent right now.

                                You guys are hilarious. The US was unable to sue Microsoft and succeed and now you are bashing the EU for the success? The reason for it are simply a fact. The EU will force MS to sell the OS for less without the Media Player or for the same price with it. So everyone can choose to use the shitty Media Player and pay the extra bucks for it.

                                BTW: it is ?497 Million . At least it sounds less than $ 611 Million

                                  Just don't sell Windows in the EU, or license it at all.

                                  Microsoft makes most of it's money on backend products, not the sale of OS anyway. Let the Europeans use Linux.
