The General Court of the European Union has upheld most of a massive fine against Microsoft Corp. by the European Commission&#39;s competition watchdog in 2008. In a ruling Wednesday, June 27, 2012, it rejected Microsoft&#39;s appeal but did cut the fine by 39 million to 860 million ($1.1 billion). (AP Photo/Joe Brokert, File)
