Patent threats bad for Microsoft business - Red Hat

,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft going around threatening customers with patent litigation does 
| not make good business sense. This is according to Red Hat's Middle 
| East and Africa channel sales manager, David Postel, who was speaking 
| in Johannesburg last week.

Watch how Microsoft fiddles with the media and spreads FUD...

White Hat

| A narrative is forming around Microsoft’s patent FUD campaign, and it’s 
| not a paean to their business acumen, nor an ode to their brinksmanship. 
| The real story is more of a folktale-in-progress that turns on 
| a simple dramatic question: What is Red Hat going to do?

When will abuse of what used to be responsible journalism actually end?
Microsoft is the paymaster and it owns (or sponsors) quite a few newspapers
and channels.
