M$ wins stay of EUxecution
Daily $2million fine postponed

BIG SOFTIE Microsoft says it had been granted extra time to respond to the threat of a $2 million-a-day sanction imposed by the European Commission because of its brawny monopolistic attitude.

The Vole had been given until tomorrow (Wednesday) to explain itself, having seemingly failed to share Windows protocols with its competitors as the Eurocrats had demanded.

Now the software cobbler says it is having trouble getting together all the relevant facts and could it have a bit more time, please. According to Reuters, the company has been given until February 15th to get its act together.
