Microsoft was fined a record 899 million euros ($1.35 billion) by the European Commission on Wednesday for using high prices to discourage software competition in the latest sanction in their long-running battle
The executive arm of the European Union said the U.S. software group defied a 2004 order from Brussels to provide the information on reasonable terms.
