The EU fined Microsoft a record $1.45 m Dollars for charging rivals too much for software info. EU regulators fined the company again Wednesday, saying it charged "unreasonable prices" until last October to software developers who wanted to make products compatible with the Windows desktop operating system.
The penalty far outweighs the next biggest fine, also imposed on Microsoft in March 2004 when the EU ordered it to pay 497 million euro ($A800 million) for using its role as the world's leading supplier of desktop software to elbow into new markets for workgroup servers and media players.
