"Vecher": Niko Computers asks for damages from Microsoft
,----[ Quote ]
| The domestic ICT sector lost its competitiveness on local tenders since
| Microsoft Macedonia allowed a foreign company to provide software for the
| Telecom from abroad, Niko Computers reacts.
|
| Microsot Macedonia must compensate the Macedonian computer dealers for
| failing to protect them from Microsoft’s software bought from abroad, and for
| denouncing the domestic computer firms if the preinstalled software that they
| are selling with the computers is not bought from the office of this
| corporate giant in Macedonia. This is why dozens of computer dealers are now
| disadvantaged or suffering financial losses when bidding for tenders in our
| country.

| While Microsoft continues to praise the market success of its
| latest operating system, the number of critical voices and negative
| comments on sales figures for Vista continues to rise. Now, the
| Dixon Store Group (DSG), a British retail chain, has released
| specific figures. The firm says that it earned 20 million pounds
| less in the first two quarters of the year because sales of Vista
| products did not meet expectations.
|
| The DSG says it has had to write off excess inventory, which
| brought down the retailer's gross margin by 2 percent. The Group
| says that far fewer Vista computers were sold at its PC World chain
| than were put on inventory.
