Comcast Corp. plans to drop Microsoft Corp.'s television software and on-screen program guide from its digital cable boxes in the Seattle area and the rest of the software company's home state.
The cable provider confirmed Monday that it plans to replace the Microsoft technology used in its Washington state cable system with the GuideWorks software and on-screen program guide used throughout the rest of the country.
The move ends a high-profile cable pact in Microsoft's backyard. The companies unveiled the Microsoft software for Comcast cable boxes in Washington with great fanfare in late 2004. Comcast's agreement left it room to roll out the Microsoft software to cable boxes in some other parts of the country, as well.
