This has thrown a spanner in the works for bill's litigation plans against open source!! Hooray!!! On Ya IBM!!, I don't agree with with software patents, but this move will at least tie us across for now! At least, if M$$ & other evil nasties will have to think twice before they attack open source with patent litigation.

This is a momment in History! This is the year Open Source starts to give M$ a peptic ulcer, a slow but painful demise of the greedy M$ monopoly.

The More M$ makes me angry, the harder I push open source to all my clients, "delete that M$ Office & install Open Office on as many systems as possible, Or I give out more Live Linux CDs!
