Updated again - Microsoft Linux patent FUDwatch
,----[ Quote ]
| Given the recent comments from Microsoft's Steve Ballmer and others I
| thought it was time for an update. I particularly enjoyed Microsoft
| lawyer Brad Smith's explanation of why patent protection is important
| even if no one actually needs it.

Can someone explain to me how the Microsoft/Novell patent deal doesn't stink?

| So if you're a Novell customer, the deal gives you peace of mind
| that Microsoft won?t sue you, which it wasn?t going to do anyway,
| for code that may or may not be in Linux, that may or may not
| infringe Microsoft patents.
