Microsoft sets a new record
Today, Microsoft got fined a record $1.3 billion by the European Union. They now offer to share more information hoping to make it easier for developers to make products for their platform. I don’t really care that much now that we have AIR…Adobe AIR already allows you to make applications that work on their operating system and as an added bonus, they also work on Mac OS and Linux straight out of the box. No need to port or anything like that. And yes… I know it’s about a lot more than just that. But anyway… Back to the story. They’ve delayed complying with the EU ruling for three years now and really didn’t do that much that suggests they are about to comply with it. Respect to Neelie Kroes for really being consistent about this. I think it’s safe to say you better not mess with Neelie ;-)
