Microsoft settles antitrust suit with Be
InfoWorld | at | by Mike
Just goes to prove that this "antitrust lawsuit" was a sham (as all the others), and never about making a difference in the market. Be saw finical $$$ gains in the lawsuit, noting more. BE was and still is irrelevant to the industry. AOL, Be, Immersion, who's next to settle, $un?
Microsoft will pay Be more than $23 million after attorneys' fees to settle an antitrust lawsuit that Be filed against it in February 2002, the companies announced Friday. Microsoft admitted no wrongdoing in the mediated settlement, in which all other terms remained confidential, the companies said in a statement. The case is currently pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, in Baltimore.
Be emerged as a developer of operating system software in 1997. The company sold its operating system and most of its assets to Palm in 2001.
