EIM: We refused Microsoft's orgies and paid for it
,----[ Quote ]
| Relations between EIM Computerized
| Technologies Ltd. and Microsoft Corporation
| (Nasdaq: MSFT) have always been sensitive,
| but EIM's statement of defense in a lawsuit
| against the software giant sets a new
| standard.
|
| EIM, was one of Microsoft's largest
| distributors in Israel until mid-2005, when
| their contract expired. In the statement of
| defense filed with the Tel Aviv District
| Court, EIM claims that its relations with
| Microsoft broke down because EIM's
| employees refused to participate in sex and
| drug orgies on a cruise organized by
| Microsoft in May 2005 for its Israeli and
| Turkish distributors.
|
| EIM alleges, "For the pleasure cruise,
| Microsoft, or people on its behalf, invited
| women who provided sexual services for
| money. During this cruise, the Microsoft
| representative encouraged the participants
| in the cruise to party with these women,
| including receiving said services. They
| were also offered banned substances."

Microsoft 'offered sex and drugs to distributors'
,----[ Quote ]
| As sales incentives go it's pretty extreme:
| one of Microsoft's Israeli distributors is
| claiming Microsoft offered resellers women
| for sex on a cruise ship.
|
| The distributor, EIM Computerized
| Technologies, made the revelations about
| the alleged activities in papers filed with
| the Tel Aviv District Court.
