teen 03/30/2005 07:25 AM
First, it was a federal judge who took pity on Jeffrey Lee Parson. Now, it's Microsoft Corp. The 19-year-old from Hopkins, Minn., won't have to pay the $500,000 in restitution he owes the company for releasing a version of the Blaster Internet worm that attacked Microsoft's Web site in the summer of 2003. Instead, the company said in court documents filed late Tuesday, he can work it off: 225 hours of community service that won't involve computers. U.S. District Judge Marsha Pechman still must sign the agreement. Pechman sentenced Parson in January to a year and a half in prison - half the time prosecutors had asked for - followed by 100 hours of community service and three years of supervised release. The judge blamed his parents for not taking more of an interest in his life. The parties earlier stipulated that the restitution owed was $500,000.

Microsoft Takes On MikeRoweSoft

Microsoft Takes On MikeRoweSoft 01/19/2004 01:44 AM
I'm surprised this one hasn't gotten more attention yet (though, it probably will). A kid in Canada named Mike Rowe needed a name for his website design business, and picked the somewhat obvious choice: MikeRoweSoft.com. The legal folks at a company you might have heard of, Microsoft, didn't take too kindly to that, and sent the typical threatening legal letter. They offered Mr. Rowe a whopping $10 for the domain. He wrote back saying $10,000 seemed more appropriate - and now Microsoft is accusing him of holding the domain hostage to try to get money out of Microsoft. I read the story a few times before I actually believed it. Even the name of the Microsoft law firm involved in this case (Smart & Biggar) made me wonder if it's all a big hoax - but it all seems real enough. Before the legal beagles chip in with the point that Microsoft needs to do this to protect their trademark, I'll respond by saying that this should be a perfect example of why that rule doesn't make much sense. How many people are actually going to confuse MikeRoweSoft with Microsoft? If anything, Mr. Rowe is going to have more trouble getting people to remember what his domain name is - as he's going to need to spell it out to everyone. However, as a publicity stunt for Mr. Rowe's web design business, this is probably going to help him out quite a bit.

Microsoft is hoping Magellan can take it where Microsoft Profit and bCentral Finance Manager could not. The destination? Small business accounting, a market dominated by Intuit's QuickBooks.

After several failed attempts, the software giant will once again make a foray into small business accounting with a project code-named Magellan, sources said. Details are sketchy. A Microsoft spokeswoman confirmed the code name, and said the company continues to investigate the best ways to serve small businesses, but that it is too early to talk product plans.

With the release of the new StarOffice 7 for Sun Solaris last month, Sun Microsystems noticeably chipped away at Microsoft’s Office juggernaut. One of the ways StarOffice--and it’s freeware cousin OpenOffice--is accomplishing its beachhead of 40 million desktops worldwide is through the PDF and Flash export capability found in both the commercial ($49.95) and free versions.
