EU: We could fine Microsoft into submission

From CNet:

The European Commission on Friday held out the possibility that Microsoft may be fined up to 5 percent of its average daily turnover unless it complies soon with a European Union antitrust decision.
Last month, Microsoft lost a months-long court bid to suspend sanctions for breaking the law and said it would offer a stripped-down version of Windows and share some protocols with rival makers of servers by early February.
‘We obviously expect the remedies to be complied with within a matter of weeks–measured from last December–rather than months,’ EU spokesman Jonathan Todd said Friday.
