Ed Foster (Infoworld): The 500-employee limit. Why, in fact, does Microsoft even have this policy in its OEM agreement if it’s not going to be enforced uniformly? I don’t know, but I doubt that Microsoft’s OEMs could legally enforce this policy — at least not the way it was presented to Mr. Hurtz. It is gross discrimination, and it’s particularly unfair that it targets companies based on number of employees.
