NEWS US tool vendor, Bristol Technology, is asking for between $130m and $263m in damages in its antitrust suit against Microsoft, according to US reports. Bristol filed against Microsoft in August, alleging "predatory manipulation" of access to the Windows source code, which Bristol claims is essential to its product development. The company claims Microsoft priced its source code unfairly high. However, Microsoft argues that a Bristol competitor, MainSoft, accepted the same licensing terms that Bristol rejected. The trial, which began earlier this month, continues.
