The network software firm Novell, while providing ammunition to the government in its pursuit of Microsoft, offered to help make Microsoft's legal troubles go away if it agreed to make Novell's software work better with Microsoft products, according to documents and testimony.
Microsoft also pointed on Thursday to documents indicating that Palm, the handheld computer firm, submitted written changes to the states' proposed penalties that would benefit Palm.
In its cross-examination of Mace, Microsoft said Palm was also intimately involved with the states' case. Microsoft obtained internal Palm documents showing that the handheld firm submitted written changes to the states' penalties that would benefit Palm.
