We all know that Microsoft will simply tell the EU courts to fuck off. It's not like the EU can seize assets that aren't in EU countries...

If Microsoft did tell the EU courts to fuck off, would the EU actually be able to kick Microsoft out (of Ireland (their EU HQ is in Dublin))? I'm sure Microsoft wouldn't want that. They'd have to export to EU countries from the USA, and AFAIK they'd be taxed alot for that.
