Novell’s patents are no more threatening than Microsoft’s, because software patents should not be recognized and probably won’t be when push comes to shove.

Microsoft’s reward for having destroyed competitors is an empty harvest. Software that once made Windows worth putting up with is either gone or outclassed by free software and web services. Hotmail, Yahoo and other web services have been ruined. Sane people avoid Microsoft whenever they can and their cash cows are ready to be hauled to McD’s.
