States Drop Planned Presentation of Modular Windows

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the infinite-delay dept.

sketchkid writes "CNBC just reported that the nine states have dropped their planned presentation of a version of Windows XP without certain "middleware". Apparently, Microsoft said the news of this presentation blindsided them and that they would need "an indefinite period of time to prepare its response", but the states don't want to prolong the case any more."

    Every time, these convicted criminals get the breaks, if not from the Justice, then from those supposed to pursue the case to its penalty resolution. Now they are in the position to dictate the terms of their own remedy.

    There is a special spot in hell being warmed for these guys!
