Im thinking of asking Mr Ballmer to tell you guys to shut up and
stuff, cause it seems that everything he says is the largest truth of
the universe, and everybody should agree...
If he tells your guys to jump in a swamp, or to buy M+Ms... heh, never mind

So, Novell was offered the gambit and all of FOSS may have to pay...
... from the article:
"According to open-software experts Microsoft is the real winner. The deal with Novell allows Microsoft to go out and demonstrate it is correct about Linux violating Microsoft patents, since Novell agreed to pay $40 million not to have its Linux customers sued for violations."
"Industry insiders are now weary of what may come of Microsoft's experts. If Microsoft convinces the patent system that it is right, the open-source industry could face potential meltdown. Eben Moglen, executive director of the Software Freedom Law Center says a massive war is about to be waged on the patent battlefield."
