Encore plus impressionnant en Dollards :
Court Upholds Microsoft's $613M Fine ... the largest ever levied by EU
regulators.

the European Commission was correct in concluding that Microsoft was
guilty of monopoly abuse in trying to use its power over desktop
computers to muscle into server software.

It ... demonstrated that selling media software with Windows had damaged rivals.

...consumers are unable to acquire Windows without simultaneously
acquiring Windows Media Player,....

...the court considers that neither the fact that Microsoft does not
charge a separate price for Windows Media Player nor the fact that
consumers are not obliged to use that Media Player is irrelevant.
