Yeah..  Sometimes I think Microsoft's tactic in this case might be to sue other
companies so that the other companies will spend enough money on legal fees
that they will be run into the ground, or at least financially hurt fairly bad.
Microsoft probably has enough money that this can work for them, at least for a
while.
