Yeah, I know. But I think his main point is valid—MS is just throwing money away with no tangible return. They cannot, realistically, sue anyone over the supposed patent violations, which means the patent “deals” made with Novell and others are just hot air.

Of course they can't sue -- it's all a bluff and if they actually sue anyone, then they have to come up with specifics rather than just scare tactics.

And we see how well that worked for SCO.
