I’m keenly aware every day of the fact that I’m competing with such a competent, paranoid, ruthless company, Jean Louis Gassee, founder of Be Inc, told the Washington Post on Friday. But justice will prevail. But Gassee will have to wait at least one week longer to find out whether or not Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson agrees with him. Jackson’s preliminary findings in the antitrust case filed against Microsoft by the Department of Justice is due to be issued on a Friday at 6.30pm Eastern time over the internet (CI No 3,774). Which Friday isn’t clear, but it wasn’t last Friday, October 28th. Despite widespread speculation that the findings were due, the deadline came and went with no word. Now all the bets are on the forthcoming Friday, November 5th.
