U.S. District Judge Marsha Pechman unsealed documents pertaining to a federal class-action lawsuit against Microsoft claiming that Microsoft deceived the buying public about PCs containing the Windows “Vista Capable” logo, but in reality can only run Vista Basic.
The documents revealed that Microsoft lowered down the minimum specifications for PCs running Vista to accomodate a graphic chip manufactured by Intel.
Allegedly, Microsoft made the change so that Intel could meet its quarterly earnings goals in 2006.
