While Microsoft and the Justice Department move toward a settlement of their antitrust case, some state attorneys general vow that we haven’t heard the last from them. What does the future hold for the company and the competitive environment? Does the settlement represent light at the end of the tunnel for Microsoft or just a temporary reprieve?
