Wisconsin Schools To Get Tech Vouchers From Microsoft

Amount Is Still Being Determined

Updated: 2:35 pm CDT June 8,2009

State education officials said more than 850 schools are in line for up to $80 million in technology reimbursements from Microsoft Corp.

The reimbursements come from a 2006 settlement the state reached with the software giant over antitrust allegations. The Wisconsin lawsuit mirrored antitrust cases in other states that claimed Microsoft consumers paid artificially high prices as a result of the company's alleged anticompetitive conduct and dominant share in the computer software market.

The settlement lays out $75 million to $80 million in reimbursements for a wide range of technology products and services. The exact amount is still being determined.

The state Department of Public Instruction said schools with 33 percent of students from low-income households can apply.
