"A Blomberg report of the microsoft action appears in the new york times. An ex Gateway employee alleges that In 1999 and 2000, Microsoft reduced discounts Gateway received for the Windows operating system when Gateway developed an Internet-connection device and a network computer powered by the rival Linux system. "Our decision to choose Linux over Windows was often cited by Microsoft executives when explaining why they considered Gateway to be a `bad partner,' "
