    This paper investigates the performance of biased estimators in the linear regression model when the assumption of homoscedasticity is not satisfied. Conditions are derived which show when OLS and GLS are dominated by shrinkage estimators with respect to various mean square error criteria. Specific attention is paid to the case when the covariance matrix of the disturbances is not completely known.
