Datel kaebas Microsofti kohtusse!

[Jack]

Kuu aega tagasi tuli Microsoft lagedale teatega, et oma järgmise updatega muudab ta Datel tüüpi mälukaardid kasutuskõlbmatuks... nii ka juhtus ning nüüd on Datel mälukaartide tootja otsustanud oma jalge alla võtta kohtutee.

Jack:

Vaatan, et Microsoftile tuleb neid hagisi nagu seeni peale vihma. Loodame, et gigandile väga liiga ei tehta.

Datel sues Microsoft over Xbox 360 memory unit crackdown
Datel Design & Development, a maker of memory units for Microsoft's Xbox 360, has filed an antitrust suit against Microsoft over its moves to prevent the U.K.-based company's products from working with the game console. The complaint, filed in U.S. District Court in San Francisco, says Microsoft is unfairly favoring its own Xbox 360 accessories by disabling the functionality of competing technologies.

Microsoft announced last month that a software update would block unauthorized memory units from working with the console. The move was ostensibly meant to crack down on cheating enabled by unauthorized memory units -- including a Datel unit that uses removable MicroSD cards -- but it also drew complaints from gamers over the price that Microsoft charges for its own memory units.

The suit seeks an injunction to prevent Microsoft from "disabling or erecting technological barriers to Datel accessories," in current and future game consoles. It also seeks unspecified monetary damages.
