EU Threatens Microsoft Over Windows

Hmmm. Two back-to-back posts this morning involving Europe...

Reuters reports this morning that the EU has pretty much issued Microsoft an ultimatum:

"BRUSSELS (Reuters) - The EU's executive told Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer his company must comply urgently with its decision to stop abusing its virtual monopoly position of its Windows operating system or face action."

"'All I can say for the moment we are still not satisfied,' European Commission spokesman Jonathan Todd told a news briefing, referring to Microsoft's action to meet the Commission's demands. "

Update: The BBC has an article about this, too.
