DECLARATION OF FRANKLIN M. FISHER

 

  1. Background

     

    1. Qualifications

       

      1. I am Professor of Economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where I have taught for more than 38 years. I am also a director of the National Bureau of Economic Research and a member of the Steering Committee of the Institute for Social and Economic Policy to the Middle East, John F. Kennedy School, Harvard University. I received my A.B. from Harvard University in 1956, and ray Ph.D. in Economics from Harvard University in 1960.

         

      2. I am a fellow and past president of the Econometric Society and for nine years was the editor of that society's journal, Econometrica. I am a member of the American Economic Association, from which I received the John Bates Clark Award; a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences; and a recipient of a John Guggenheim Fellowship.

         

      3. My fields of specialization within economics are industrial organization, microeconomics, and econometrics. I am the author of 16 books and well over 100 articles. In the course of my scholarly research and my consulting works I have studied issues of competition and monopoly in a large number of industries. I have written extensively in the area of antitrust economics. I have provided expert consultation and testimony in numerous antitrust cases and have testified at trial, in deposition, or by affidavit in more than 40 cases in the last 10 years. These cases are listed in my curriculum vitae, which is attached as Exhibit I.

         

      4. I was for many years IBM's chief economic witness in US v. IBM (dismissed, 1982) and associated cases. This work is discussed in two of my books.

     

    1. Nature of Retention

       

      1. I have been asked to provide my expert economic opinion about the competitive effects of a collection of Microsoft's actions centered around its Internet browser.

         

      2. I reserve the right to supplement this report with any opinions or results that I reach after further study, particularly if new or additional relevant information should become available. I also reserve the right to respond to any report or opinions that are offered by other parties to this litigation.

     

    1. Materials and Documents Reviewed

       

      1. As part of my analysis, I have considered deposition transcripts of Microsoft employees, deposition transcripts of employees of other companies in the computer industry, Microsoft agreements with third parties, Microsoft internal documents, and Other related documents and information.

     

  2. Summary of Opinions

     

    1. The dominance of Microsoft's (MS) Windows 9x operating system in the market for operating systems for Intel-compatible desktop personal computers is protected, among other things, by what are sometimes referred to as network effects.

       

    2. MS has foreseen the possibility that the dominant position of its Windows operating system will be challenged by Internet browsers that are capable of supporting applications that are operating-system independent.

       

    3. Microsoft has taken anti-competitive actions to exclude competition in Internet browsers in order to protect the current dominance of its Windows operating system. For example, Microsoft has entered into restrictive agreements with personal computer (PC) manufacturers that require manufacturers to accept Microsoft's Internet browser with its Windows operating system and hinder manufacturers from promoting competing browsers. Moreover, Microsoft has made exclusionary agreements with Internet Access Providers (IAPs) and Internet Content Providers (ICPs).

       

    4. There is a substantial probability that these anti-competitive actions will permit MS to retain its power over price in operating systems and will inhibit development of MS-independent innovations. Both would harm consumer welfare.

     

  3. Economic Analysis and Conclusions

     

    1. The dominance of Microsoft's (MS) Windows 9x operating system in the market for operating systems for Intel-compatible desktop personal computers is protected, among other things, by what are sometimes referred to as network effects.

       

      1. A network effect occurs when each person's benefit from using a product or technology increases with the number of other people who also use that product or technology.

         

      2. In a market characterized by network effects, it is typical for one technology eventually to become the standard, since some of the benefit of the technology is derived from others' use of it. For example, in video recorders (VCRs), the original competition between the VHS and Beta standards ended in tine disappearance of the Beta machines and tapes as an increase in the number and share of VHS recorders led to fewer and fewer tapes produced in Beta format.

         

      3. Operating systems are characterized by network effects. The primary reason for this is that, generally, application software written for a specific operating system cannot run on a different operating system without extensive and costly modifications or add-ons. As a result, a given user's ability to do things such as exchanging files with others, learning more from others about the capabilities of certain applications, or capitalizing on training in a particular operating system increases with the number of others who use the same operating system as does the given user. The network effect is reinforced by the fact that software developers tend to write applications for the most popular system, and the most innovative applications are thus available to users of the most popular system.

         

      4. Network effects have increased the desirability of Microsoft's Windows 9x for consumers. Once enough users had been attracted to Windows, that very fact made Windows even more desirable to further users.

         

      5. There is nothing inherently anti-competitive about this. However, network effects create high barriers to competition and entry in operating systems. This increases the risk that anti-competitive conduct by Microsoft will increase barriers even further. This will serve to entrench Microsoft's monopoly and thus significantly injure competition.

       

    2. MS has foreseen the possibility that the dominant position of its Windows operating system will be challenged by Internet browsers that are capable of supporting applications that are operating-system independent.

       

      1. The browsers produced by Netscape run on 17 different operating systems, including Windows, fee Apple Macintosh operating system, and various versions of the UNIX operating system.

         

      2. Applications can be developed that run on browsers and do not need to interact with the underlying operating system. For example, the same Web site page on the Internet World Wide Web can be viewed with browsers running on Windows, the Apple Macintosh operating system, or the UNIX operating system. Because applications running on the browser are not operating-system specific, the Netscape browser could undermine the network effects that are currently enjoyed by the MS operating system. This in turn would eliminate the barrier to entry in the operating systems market created by network effects. With enough applications written to be operating-system independent, users might cease to care whether they had the same operating system as did many others.

         

      3. Microsoft's own documents show an awareness of browsers as a serious threat to the dominance of the Windows operating system, and its executives have stated in depositions and internal documents their concern about browsers.

       

    3. MS has taken anti-competitive actions to exclude competition in Internet browsers in order to protect the current dominance of Its Windows operating system.

       

      1. Microsoft recognizes that it can protect its dominant position in the PC operating systems market by gaining and keeping a large share of the business in browsers.

         

        1. If Microsoft were to exclude competition in browsers, it would not be compelled by competitive pressure to ensure that its Internet Explorer browser (IE) could run on operating systems other than Windows. Moreover, Microsoft would not be compelled by competitive pressure to support applications that are not tied to the Windows operating system.

           

        2. In this situation, if Microsoft decided to support only Windows-based technology, developers would have incentive to create applications that run best on Windows. Applications would be operating-system specific again, and the resulting network effect would continue to protect Microsoft's share in operating systems.

         

      2. Microsoft has promoted the distribution and use of IE by entering into restrictive agreements with PC original equipment manufacturers (OEMs)1. The agreements require PC manufacturers who want to preinstall Windows 98 on their machines to also preinstall Microsoft's Internet Explorer. The agreements also limit the ability of OEMs to promote other browsers.

         

        1. Typically, the agreements require that licensees may not modify or delete any of the product software. This prevents OEMs from removing any part of IE, including the visible means of user access to the IE software, such as the IE icon on the Windows desktop or the IE entry in the "Start" menw.2

           

        2. Typically, the agreements stipulate that licensees may not modify or obscure the appearance of the start-up or desktop screens. While licensees may add icons or folders on the desktop, the icons (folders) must be the same size and of similar shape as icons (folders) already on the desktop. This limits the ability of OEMs to promote other browsers by, for example, highlighting the existence of another browser with a large desktop icon or modifying the start-up sequence to give users an opportunity to make a non-IE browser their default browser or replace IE with a competing browser.

           

        3. Licensees are not restricted from loading other browsers on the desktop. However, in some cases OEMs prefer to load only one browser to avoid user confusion and the resulting consumer support costs. In addition, some OEMs view the desktop as scarce real estate and are generally reluctant to preinstall more than one software title in each functional category.

           

        4. If Microsoft were a small company with a small share of operating systems, these types of provisions would be harmless. Given Microsoft's actual dominance, these types of provisions are anti-competitive. They inhibit PC manufacturers from preinstalling and promoting competing browsers. Their purpose and effect are to weaken Microsoft's browser competition in order to protect Microsoft's business in operating systems.3

         

      3. Microsoft has also promoted IE by striking deals with Internet Access Providers (IAPs) in order to protect Microsoft's business in operating systems.4 In general these agreements state that Microsoft will provide users with access to IAP services from the desktop, and in return, IAPs agree not only that they will promote IE, but also that they will not promote other browsers.5 Typically, some of the more restrictive provisions include:

         

        1. requirements that 75% or more of the IAP software shipments include IE as the only browser;

           

        2. limitations on IAP links to use or download third-party browsers on the IAP home Web page or any other Internet access service Web page offered by the IAP;

           

        3. limitations on expressing or implying that an alternate browser is available, including limitations on displaying any logo for a non-IE Web browser on the IAP home Web page or any other internet access service Web page offered by the IAP.

           

        4. Again, given Microsoft's position in operating systems, these provisions are anti-competitive. Their purpose and effect are to reduce the ability of competing browser manufacturers to distribute and promote their browsers through leading IAPs. Regardless of whether such provisions would be anti-competitive in themselves if put in place by a company with a small share of operating systems, they are certainly anti-competitive when Microsoft uses them to protect its dominant position in operating systems.

         

      4. Microsoft has promoted the use of IE by striking deals with Internet Content Providers (ICPs) for its Channel Bar.6 ICPs value the opportunity to have a channel on the Microsoft desktop, because it encourages users to visit the ICPs' Web sites, which in turn increases the ICPs' ability to promote their own products and to sell advertising space on their Web pages. Typically, the general nature of the agreements is that, in return for a prominent position on Microsoft's Channel Bar, ICPs agree not only that they will promote IE, but also that they will not promote or distribute competing browsers. Some of the more restrictive provisions typically included in the agreements are as follows:

         

        1. An ICP must agree to promote IE and no other browser7 as the browser software of choice for specified Web sites.

           

        2. An ICP must not distribute any other browser besides IE as an integral part of any channel client for use on Windows and Macintosh platforms.

           

        3. ICPs and their affiliates may not compensate a company that produces other browsers for carrying or promoting the ICPs' content or logos.

           

        4. Again, given Microsoft's position in operating systems, these provisions are anti-competitive, because they are designed to preserve Microsoft's large share of business in operating systems by hindering competition from other browsers. Thus, for example, the provision that prevents ICPs from compensating a company that produces other browsers for carrying or promoting the ICPs' content or logos can have no other purpose than to damage those browser owners. It is not a profit-maximizing act by Microsoft independent of its effect of weakening the competition.

         

      5. If Microsoft's IE browser and Windows operating system are superior products, then competition will lead OEMs, IAPs, ICPs, and customers to choose them, and Microsoft need not artificially influence those choices. But Microsoft is marketing IE in such a way as to make the choice between browsers a foregone conclusion, which in turn would allow Microsoft to protect the current dominance of the Windows operating system.8 This situation can never make consumers better off than they would be with unfettered competition, and it is likely to make consumers worse off.

       

    4. There is a substantial probability that these anti-competitive actions will permit MS to retain its power over price in operating systems and will inhibit development of MS-independent innovations. Both would harm consumer welfare.

       

      1. Internet browsers that are capable of supporting applications that are operating-system independent are a potential substitute for Windows. If Microsoft minimizes competition from other browsers and chooses to support only Windows-based technology, then consumers will perceive few alternatives to the Windows operating system. As a result, Microsoft could raise the price of its operating system with little fear of losing customers.

         

      2. Microsoft's anti-competitive actions are aimed at hindering the success of non-IE browsers, but they are likely to send a message to all software developers: Microsoft will impede any innovation that threatens the dominance of Windows. This will lessen developers' incentives to develop non-Windows based innovations. As a result, the range of software products consumers can choose from will be limited. Narrowed choice and slowed technological progress can never improve the welfare of consumers and are likely to decrease it. If Windows is truly a superior product, it will succeed on its merits. The actions Microsoft is taking will prevent that from being necessary.

     

  4. I have reviewed Professor Sibley's affidavit and I am in agreement with its contents.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on May 12, 1998, in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

FOOTNOTES

1 These comments are based on the "Microsoft Windows 98 OPK RC 0 Release Notes", February 27, 1998.

2 IE is also bundled with the Windows software that Microsoft distributes through retail channels.

3 Microsoft's bundling of IE with the Windows software it distributes through retail channels is a similar effort to weaken Microsoft's browser competition in order to protect Microsoft's dominance in operating systems.

4 These comments are based on a review of the four On-line Service Provider agreements and six Internet Service Provider (ISP) agreements. All of the agreements limit the shipment of non-IE browsers. The restrictions on downloading and promoting third party browsers that are listed here more closely reflect the wording of the ISP agreements, but On-line Service Providers are also limited in their ability to download and promote third party browsers.

5 ISPs typically pay a referral fee to Microsoft for new members who access their services from the Windows desktop.

6 These comments are based on a review of ten Internet Content Provider agreements.

7 "Other browsers" refer to the top two most widely used browsers, exclusive of IE.

8 I understand that Microsoft has recently issued a statement to IAPs in the Referral Server and ICPs waiving some of the restrictions in their agreements.
