HEADLINE: Some reaction to the ruling against Microsoft

BYLINE: By The Associated Press

"To have a government entity force a private company to spend millions of dollars designing, manufacturing and selling a product that is inferior is not only fiscally irresponsible but is simply preposterous. There is no conceivable basis to believe that forcing Microsoft to offer a degraded operating system will promote competition in the European Union." - Rep. Adam Smith, D-Wash.
