How did it happen that Bill Gates wound up being pursued and attacked by his own gov't.? And how did a co. that dominated the technology landscape find itself weakened, vulnerable, and under the threat of a court-ordered breakup? Here is the secret history of the antitrust trial that shook an economy: U.S. v. Microsoft. Drawing on years of reporting -- including extensive interviews with Gates and other top Microsoft executives, Justice Dept. trustbuster Joel Klein, superlitigator David Boies, Intel chief Andy Grove, Sun Microsystems CEO Scott McNealy, and scores of lesser-known but pivotal players -- Heilemann lays bare the chaotic confluence of forces that shattered Microsoft's aura of invincibility and the climate of fear that held an industry in thrall.
