In defense of Judge Motz...
Authored by: cpeterson on Wednesday, June 06 2012 @ 11:08 AM EDT

(even though I'd really rather not be defending him)

He tends to paraphrase and repeat what other people have said. It really doesn't come through well on the transcript, and this is another of those places where the audio recording would be much better. I'll try to format it the way it would have been spoken.

In terms of the opening statements, there was one statement made by Microsoft's counsel about this case not having been filed for a certain number of years, nine or ten years after the event, to reflect or put the suggestion that,
"look, if this was a problem why didn't you file suit earlier. It is fair game to say why didn't you comment earlier, why didn't you criticize it earlier, and that is a matter of evidence for you all to decide."
Don't worry about when the suit was filed. They acted within their rights. It is a long time, but there are reasons and limitations were tolled and they acted within their rights in not filing a suit for whenever they filed the suit. Just disregard that part of the opening statement.

It doesn't look right in the transcript, but it satisfied Mr. Schmidtlien enough that he said "Thank you", not "Objection!"

MS Cheating on Windows 95
Authored by: Anonymous on Wednesday, June 06 2012 @ 03:04 PM EDT

I was talking to the President and CEO of a software company in 1996, and
I complained to him about the late release of their WIN95 product. He told
me that Microsoft refused to provide them a copy of WIN95 until the week
before it was shipped.

It just so happens that one of their products competes with a Microsoft
product. Makes you wonder, doesn't it?

And no, I won't name the person or the company.
