Settlement consumers must use Microsoft site
Seattle PI | at | by Mike
Microsoft won a court fight with Lindows.com Inc. when a California judge ruled that customers seeking a refund from an antitrust settlement must use Microsoft's Web site.
San Francisco Superior Court Judge Paul Alvarado said consumers couldn't file for a voucher at software maker Lindows.com's site, which allows customers to use the refund for Lindows.com programs. Microsoft in July won court approval for a $1.1 billion settlement in an antitrust suit brought by consumers.
