(August 2010) On 26 July 2010, the European Commission announced[1] two separate antitrust investigations against International Business Machines (IBM). Both cases are related to the suspected abuse of IBM's dominant position in the mainframe market. The first case follows complaints by emulator vendors T3 Technologies and TurboHercules and focuses on the alleged tying of IBM's mainframe hardware to its mainframe operating system, potentially precluding customers from the execution of mission critical mainframe applications on non-IBM servers. The second case is an investigation begun on the EC's own initiative, looking into IBM's alleged discriminatory behaviour towards competing suppliers of mainframe maintenance services. In its initial reaction[2] to the EC's decision, IBM said that the allegations had been brought forward by "satellite proxies" of rival Microsoft. Microsoft itself used to be the subject of an epic EU antitrust case. So did Intel Corporation.[3] It came as a surprise to the Free and Open Source Software community in April 2010 that IBM had sent a letter to Roger Bowler, the founder of the Hercules emulator project and of the TurboHercules company, with which the technology giant appeared to threaten[4] with 106 patents and 67 patent applications. Two of those patents had been pledged by IBM to the Free and Open Source Software community in January 2005.
