Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly of Federal District Court in Washington, who has little background in either technology or antitrust law, has reserved judgment on the fundamental issue of how broad the scope of a remedy should be. This week, after a crash course on high-tech industries, which featured the frequent use of arcane acronyms and testimony from executives and experts from all corners of the business, Judge Kollar-Kotelly will finally hear oral arguments on a Microsoft motion to exclude much of the evidence the states presented.
