Bristol sues Microsoft

Posted by sengan on Wednesday August 19, 1998 @05:25PM from the death-by-1000-wounds-or-sour-grapes? dept.

Bristol is a small company that makes a cross platform tool which enables Windows programs to run under Unix. Unlike Wine they use Microsoft's Windows source code. Now they are suing Microsoft for illegally using its operating system monopoly power to undermine the competing Unix market, according to their lawsuit. What's interesting is that Sybase submitted an affidavit in Bristol's favour. Perhaps now they'd be interested in helping/funding Wine?
