Microsoft moves on ruling in Sun case
eWeek | at | by Mike
Microsoft has started to comply with last month's preliminary injunction ordering it to include Sun Microsystems' latest Java Runtime Environment (JRE) in certain current and future versions of Windows XP and Internet Explorer. On January 21, Judge J. Frederick Motz of the U.S. District Court in Baltimore, issued the injunction requiring Microsoft to include Sun's JRE and enjoining Microsoft from certain separate or stand-alone distributions of its own Java virtual machine (JVM).
The Redmond, Wash., software firm said that, effective today, it is replacing Windows XP Service Pack 1 with an updated version of the service pack, Windows XP SP1a, that does not include its own JVM.
