Microsoft, Apple Sued For Patented
Online Updates 07/21/2004 10:54 AM
Last month, a company named BTG announced that they held the "worldwide licensing rights" for a patent on automatic updates over the internet -- and (of course) they expected everyone to pay up, including Microsoft. Well, it appears that the Microsoft lawyers laughed them out of the room, so now BTG has been forced to sue both Microsoft and Apple for violating patent 6,557,054 on "A method and system for distributing updates by presenting directory of software available for user installation that is not already installed on user station." And people still think our patent system works great? The patent was applied for in April of 2000. There must be a ridiculous amount of prior art of applications that updated themselves prior to that.

Microsoft Not Obeying Antitrust Rules
Again... Maybe 03/19/2005 03:17 AM
It looks like Microsoft may be doing the same thing in Europe that it was accused of doing in the US a while back. After being dinged for antitrust violations and being told to make changes... it just kept on doing what it was doing. So, it's really no surprise to hear EU regulators complaining that Microsoft is not following through with its promise to make products more compatible with others. However, the case really isn't all that clear cut. They're judging this based on the market, rather than on what Microsoft has actually done. Of course, that might just indicate that they were wrong in their original assessment, and perhaps the problem wasn't that Microsoft had compatibility problems, but with something else entirely. If that were the case, Microsoft could make their systems more compatible every day for the rest of our lives and it wouldn't mean that the market situation would change.
