| While it's made Michael Robertson a hero among geeks, his practices
| have also thrown him into legal trouble with companies that guard
| the rights to their ideas, including a two-year epic battle with
| Microsoft, over Robertson's Lindows operating system. Lindows name
| changed to Linspire in April 2004, as part of a $20 million
| settlement with Microsoft.
