The Court of First Instance (CFI) just finished its first morning session where the lordships (really – that’s what they call the judges) heard Microsoft attorneys and supporters discuss why the company shouldn’t be forced to remove code from its operating system. As someone who closely followed the US antitrust proceedings, I have to say that today’s first session gave me a strong feeling of déjà vu.  Just replace the words “media player†with “browser†and presto we’re back in 1998, folks. Yikes.
