EU Warns Microsoft On Vista Features

Paul Meller writes on InfoWorld:

The European Commission has laid out specific antitrust concerns it has about Vista, Microsoft's long awaited new operating system, Commission spokesman Jonathan Todd said Wednesday.

"We are concerned about the possibility that Vista will include software elements which are available separately either sold by Microsoft or by other software companies," Todd said.

"There is also the possibility that we won't have all the technical information needed for competitors to make their software interoperable with Vista," he added.

The Commission said it told Microsoft about these concerns in a letter sent last week to Chief Executive Officer Steve Ballmer.
