Microsoft to Pay $775 Million To Settle IBM Antitrust Claim





Again, Microsoft is buying goodwill and peace of mind.

From Wall Street Journal:

Microsoft Corp. agreed to pay $775 million and provide software to International Business Machines Corp. to settle a long-running antitrust dispute between the giants.

The companies said the settlement resolves claims arising from the federal government's antitrust case against Microsoft in the mid-1990s, where IBM, of Armonk, N.Y., was identified as having been impacted by certain Microsoft practices.
