I sure do love patent trolls. Who cares about innovation when you can get a slice of the 500 billion dollar pie?

You're fucking kidding me. Microsoft is sinking down to Apple's level now?

Oh sure, you can spend millions developing something good and worthwhile, but that's risky! Lets sue everyone instead and live off that.

Patents should be abolished altogether.

>>Paul Allen’s Dog Ate His Suit Against Apple
 http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-09-01/paul-allen-s-dog-ate-his-suit-agai... 
>>If someone stole your shiny new car, you wouldn’t wait until the 86th time you saw someone driving it around town to call the police.

>>In filing his patent infringement lawsuit against 11 e- commerce companies and Internet giants, Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen staked an ownership claim to functions he says his shop developed a decade ago.

>>How fair is that? If these patented inventions really are the basis for essential Internet activities, as Allen claims, surely he noticed years ago.
>>The oldest of the patents dates to March 2000, the most recent to September 2004. What took so long?

>>What gets me is the notion that Allen would wait this long to sue. The law sets no time limit, but courts punish those who sit on their patents while others are infringing them.
Wait, the system actually punishes those who sit on such?

Still, these lawsuits are also intended to waste other companies time, money, resources, etc while hoping they die or give in.
