LUXEMBOURG: In a stinging rebuke to the world's largest software maker, the second-highest European court on Monday rejected a request by Microsoft to overturn a 2004 European Commission antitrust ruling that the company had abused its dominance in computer operating systems.
The European Court of First Instance, in a starkly worded summary read to a courtroom of about 150 journalists and lawyers here, ordered Microsoft to obey a March 2004 commission order and upheld the €497.2 million, or $689.4 million, fine against the company.
"The court finds the commission did not err in assessing the gravity and duration of the infringement and did not err in setting the amount of the fine," the ruling stated. "Since the abuse of a dominant position is confirmed by the court, the amount of the fine remains unchanged."
