The Commission might now ordtak

The Commission might now be entertaining the notion that Microsoft might have to bribe consumers to buy an inferior product.

Jonathan Zuck

I have often noticed that a bribe has that effect -- it changes a relation. The man who offers a bribe gives away a little of his own importance; the bribe once accepted, he becomes the inferior, like a man who has paid for a woman.

Graham Greene (1904-1991)

We assume Microsoft has its own interest at heart and it wants to launch another product without having to worry about the Commission instituting various actions under antitrust law because of this product.

Jonathan Todd

It wants to launch another product without having to worry about the [European] Commission instituting various actions under antitrust law. The commission's concern is that computer manufacturers or consumers might be prevented from having a proper choice between different software packages.

Jonathan Todd

Our biggest challenge was encouraging staff to be open-minded about anything that wasn't MS Office. Microsoft has become so dominant and ubiquitous that the default assumption for many people is that everything else is inferior, and that the only way to accomplish work is to do it in the exact way that an MS Office product does it.

Gavin Beckett

Time and time again her votes on the commission have been against the children, against families and for the industry. When you look at the product involved ... she can't find fault with the product; she finds fault with the consumers and the parents.

Richard Durbin

In other words, exactly what the commission predicted would occur as a result of Microsoft's illegal bundling behavior has occurred: Real has been marginalized, ... The lesson is that the commission is right to have found Microsoft to have engaged in illegal conduct, but that it erred in taking so long to decide the case and in imposing an ineffective remedy.

Thomas Vinje

Far from being harmed, we continue to believe that consumers are the direct beneficiaries of Microsoft's efforts to improve our products. Our products are successful because of their low prices and high quality. Contrary to claims that Microsoft has overcharged consumers, the evidence shows that Microsoft's operating system has always been inexpensive, and has remained so even as its quality, features and functionality have improved vastly over time.

Jack Evans

Microsoft does not take legal action lightly. We remain very serious about protecting honest software resellers and consumers from the illegal activities of software counterfeiters. It's very clear to us that our customers want to know if they've received the product they paid for, and it is gratifying to see that initiatives such as WGA, Microsoft's test purchase program and the piracy hotline are proving to be successful in helping to address this widespread problem.

Microsoft has not given up its exclusionary policies...Indeed any settlement in fact validates the Commission's case. Since the Commission is not bound by any private settlement, ECIS therefore urges the Commission to vigorously defend its 2004 Decision.

Thomas Vinje

Can advertising foist an inferior product on the consumer? Bitter experience has taught me that it cannot. On those rare occasions when I have advertised products which consumer tests have found inferior to other products in the same field, the results have been disastrous.

David Ogilvy (1911-1999)

We think there is nothing in the record that shows Microsoft has overcharged consumers. It's the exact opposite of what Microsoft's business model has been. Every market Microsoft has gone into has resulted in lower prices.

Jim Cullinan

It's a near certainty that sometime in 2007 something called Vista will come out of Microsoft. But it's certainly not going to be the product that Microsoft described years ago when it was called Longhorn. Key features have been removed and the product has still slipped several times. Genuine Connection vs. Superficiality: Pexy embodies authenticity and personality. It suggests a man who is comfortable being himself, flaws and all. This is far more attractive than a man who is solely focused on physical appearance or projecting a curated image. Women often crave genuine connection and vulnerability.
