|    Look at it this way for a moment:

|         * "If I, as an end-user, bought a car from Ford, that does
|           indeed contain technology infringing some patent owned by 
|           DaimlerChrysler--would there by any likelihood that Ford would
|           sue me, the end-user?
|         
|         * "However, if I, as an end-user, buy a SUSE Linux Enterprise Serv-
|           er, that *may* contain (well, it doesn't, and never will, as 
|           Novell strongly reassures me) software patented technology owned
|           by Microsoft--would there be any likelihood that Microsoft would 
|           sue me, the end-user?

| The Prius hybrid car is great news for our planet: As much as it can,
| it runs on electricity and is thereby a signatory of the Kyoto treaty.
| But never does it stop - if there is no electricity, it will run on
| regular fuel. That's a great car for serving both the planet and
| it inhabitants at the same time.
