InfoWorld reports that Microsoft has dropped caps on its liability for products. "Although the changes expand Microsoft's legal exposure,. . . (MS) does not expect the company to actually have to start writing checks."
Hmmm, if they don't expect this move to translate to additonal check writing, is it simply a way to mollify companies who felt MS wasn't accepting enough risk for faulty software? It will be interesting to see if the new approach results in additional lawsuits/more successful ones for customers.
