"A federal judge in San Jose, Calif., has partially reinstated the preliminary injunction granted against Microsoft last November barring Microsoft from distributing operating systems, browsers, or tools that implement Sun Microsystems' Java technology but fail to pass Sun's compatibility tests."

"In going back to the November 1998 injunction, Judge Ronald Whyte also prohibited Microsoft from making false claims about its Java developer tool kit...."

"Both sides claimed partial victory Tuesday after the complex legal ruling."
