On one hand this is the result what those silly software patents yield.

On the other hand there is Microsoft's past actions regarding them violating software patents and e.g, them letting the end users pay the price for their unwillingness to settle e.g The whole eolas affair where the users and us webmaster were forced into from 2006 till 2008 (after they finally licensed it anyway...)

So count me as neither a fan of the concent of software patents, nor of the way Microsoft behaves in relation to them.
