Arkansas settles anti-trust dispute with Microsoft

Microsoft is paying $38 million to the State of Arkansas to settle anti-trust action.

Any Arkansas resident or business who bought a Microsoft product between 1 January 1998 and 31 December 2004 for use in the state is entitled to a voucher.

The state says Microsoft violated Arkansas laws pertaining to anti-trust, consumer protection, and unfair competition by overcharging customers for some of its operating systems, word processing, and spreadsheet software.

Microsoft denies any wrongdoing.
