Story: Microsoft defends its patents

•

Microsoft has historically been a follower in terms of features and technological innovation, not a leader.

WIth the market and mindshare lock-in they've had over the past ten years, they really don't have to innovate in order to impress a large portion of their user base, since most of their users have never used a competing desktop operating system or office product.

I personally would love to see a list of technologies that Microsoft has claimed they have invented.
