Microsoft has issued a class suit....

Has anyone else seen anything about this? I have only found the one mention of it in a recent Chip Outsider... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Snipped from "The Chip Outsider" written by Dan Hutcheson, VLSI Research. Microsoft has issued a class suit, going after the chip and equipment industry for violating licenses on its XP software. The suit argues that since Microsoft software is used in all chip equipment and that wafer production is a for-profit use that an additional license fee for each wafer processed should be paid. Chipmakers are incensed at the license tax of $1 per wafer pass, which would amount to roughly 10% of all processing costs.
