[link\|http://www.nytimes.com/2002/11/30/technology/30SOFT.html\|NY Times piece.] (iwethey/iwethey) Massachusetts announced yesterday that it would fight on in court to try to toughen the sanctions against Microsoft in the company's long-running antitrust case. Seven other states and the District of Columbia said they would not appeal a federal judge's order earlier this month, which did little to strengthen a settlement reached last year between the Bush administration and Microsoft. West Virginia said it would decide on Monday, the deadline for deciding whether to appeal. West Virginia? What are the odds on that one? What a pitiful end to the DOJ case.
