The filing with federal court in San Francisco says that Microsoft struck deals with PC makers barring them from installing more than one operating system on computers they sold. "Microsoft harmed Be through a series of illegal exclusionary and anticompetitive acts designed to maintain its monopoly in the Intel-compatible PC operating system market," Be said in the statement.
