Back again in June, there were extra than a couple of stories about Pc makers in China finding ready to sue Microsoft for alleged antitrust violations pertaining to Windows. Microsoft and China;s State Intellectual Property Office — the latter being the source of the original round of stories — both claimed the initial reports had been inaccurate.But according to a new story from the August 15 edition of the Wall Street Journal, Microsoft still might not be out of antitrust hot water in China.

I;m not suggesting that such an antitrust complaint would have merit; I;m simply surprised no one has tried filing one….What;s your take?
