Microsoft chief counsel Brad Smith was questioned yesterday on how the talks with the European Union Commission broke down. An edited transcript of the interview follows:
Q. Do you plan to appeal?
A. I can say by definition this will go forward to the courts. The process will need to move forward after the commission's process is complete.
We've always said that we would prefer to work this out. Given that we haven't been able to do so, it's clear that we will all be able to benefit from the clarity that the courts can bring to these questions.
