Re: Microsoft -- Remedies from 1984 EC IBM Undertaking
It's true that the IBM undertaking seems quite revolutionary, especially
from the US perspective. This was a crucial issue in the debate regarding
the EC Computer Software Directive of 1991 and its decompilation exception.
I have a short paper "EC COMPETITION LAW AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS"
that I wrote a few years ago after the Court of First Instance Magill
judgment which concerns the abuse of IPR by market dominating firms. If
you're interested I can e-mail it to you.
