Microsoft aspetta l’ultimo secondo per rispondere all’ultimatum di Bruxelles

BBC NEWS | Business | Microsoft meets Brussels deadline: "US software giant Microsoft has met a 1 June deadline for responding to a landmark European Union antitrust ruling against the company.

'We have submitted proposals and we are awaiting a response from the EU Commission,' a spokesman said.

In 2004, Brussels found Microsoft guilty of abusing its market dominance and fined it 497m euros ($655m; £340m).

If the Commission considers Microsoft's response to have fallen short, it could hit the firm with daily fines of $5m.

A spokesman said it could take 'a few weeks' to come to a decision."
