South Korea Antitrust Regulators Fine Microsoft $32M
An AP newswire article by Bo-Mi Lim, via Yahoo! News, reports that:
South Korean antitrust regulators ruled that Microsoft Corp. abused its software market dominance, fined it $32 million and ordered the company to offer alternative versions of its Windows operating system that country within six months. Microsoft said it will fight the decision in court.
The Korea Fair Trade Commission on Wednesday found Microsoft's practice of tying certain software to Windows constitutes an "abuse of market dominant position and unfair trade practices," Kang Chul-kyu, the commission's chairman, told reporters.
