Microsoft got in line with several other organizations that are taking steps to get paid for products and services provided to Washington Mutual, the largest bank to fail in U.S. history.

On Tuesday, Microsoft filed a document with the Delaware bankruptcy court handling the WaMu case asking to be sent copies of all proceedings in the case. "Microsoft filed a notice of appearance because we have existing contracts for software licenses and consulting services with Washington Mutual and we want to make sure those contracts are properly administered through the bankruptcy process," said David Bowermaster, a Microsoft spokesman, in an e-mailed statement.
