This whole thing was a tad more scary before SCO tried this play book. If SCO *UNIX* cant produce anything in Linux that is their IP I doubt MS has nearly as much as they are advertising. Like SCO they are keeping the patents being infringed upon secret because
1) Upon review they would get dumped
2) This is more a tactic to get cross licensing and nothing more
Frankly IMHO until they fix the mess at the patent office all of these cases are joke because such a huge number of patents are not worth the paper they wre granted on.
I do. Yuk. And Yuk to anything that came from Ashton-Hate. Multimate, whatever the heck they called that abysmal spreadsheet, etc.
