Re: F... Microsoft

Well there was this thread

http://www.thewarpath.net/parking-lot/20094-f-m.html

I'm not exactly sure I get what the problem is here. If Microsoft has patents, don't they have the right to be compensated for them?

Anyhow, I'm reminded of that episode where Homer Simpson starts CompuGlobalHyperMegaNet and Bill Gates has his goons bust up Homer's equipment and "buy him out"

Ya know I searched Microsoft, and F Microsoft , but in both cases only scrolled to 2008 threads (F... Microsoft only had like 6 similar, or something)

I understand your point on patents, just felt like griping about Microsoft. Maybe I'll start a F Walmart thread too lol

Re: F... Microsoft

At some point Google buying patents from IBM and acquiring Motorola Mobility will pay off and the era of suing Android manufacturer will come to an end.

May the best phone maker win.

Same thing has probably been said about personal computing. I don't always feel the best gadget wins, but the one that has the most money backing it.
