“Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson doesn’t just want to break up
Microsoft. He wants to make it hurt.“
“And it might happen sooner rather than later. Jackson said he
foresees “no further process” in the trial after Wednesday’s
hearing on possible remedies, setting the stage for an early
decision.”
“Jackson, the federal judge overseeing the antitrust trial, also
signaled Wednesday that he was dissatisfied with a government plan
to carve Microsoft into two halves — and suggested three pieces
might be better.”
“At the end of the hearing, Jackson said he was just about ready
to make a ruling.”
