The Guardian's David Gow reports from Brussels here. The EC secured "a comprehensive victory," even winning the patently stupid bits of its case:
the [Court of First Instance] ruled that the commission was right to force the company to sell a version of Windows without Media Player, its video and audio streaming software, already embedded -- or tied. The commission and most lawyers thought Brussels might lose this part of the appeal.
As the story says:
Brussels is now free to pursue other high-profile cases against hi-tech companies such as Intel and has emerged as the world's leading antitrust authority.
