Government may ask Court to Block WinXP

WinInfo | at | by Mike

Quoting sources close to state and federal prosecutors, a report this weekend in The Washington Post said that the government and state attorneys general are seriously considering asking the courts to block Windows XP's release or at least require Microsoft to modify the OS before releasing it. According to the report, lawyers from the offices of the New York, Wisconsin, and California attorneys general are conducting XP research. None of the parties involved are willing to speak publicly about the government's legal strategy.
