MICROSOFT: WE CAN DECIDE NOT TO OFFER A PRODUCT IF WE WANT TO
In the Microsoft antitrust case, the company argued that it had every right
to tell Apple last year that if Apple didn't adopt Microsoft's Internet
browser as the default choice on all Apple computers, then Microsoft would
simply stop producing software to run on Apple machines. A Microsoft
attorney asked Apple executive Avadis Tevanian: "Suppose Microsoft simply
decides not to offer a product. Do you have a problem with that."
Tevanian's answer: "Yes. I have a problem with them doing it when they are
using it as a threat to get us to do something we didn't want to do." (New
York Times 5 Nov 98)
