  1. Comment - Linux Foundation: We Have Our Own Patent 'Arsenal'

    No MS couldn't kill Linux. The largest section of Linux users are in countries which are sane and do not allow patents on software. A massive amount of development is done outside the US.

    Linux would survive outside and would return to the US when the inevitable patent reform happens.

    If that's the intention of MS then I'm on the side of MS. Unfortunately while MS would take patent reform if it came their way they are prepared to use it to try and damage OSS first.

    If MS come out tomorrow and said 'Hey we want to do away with software patents, fancy giving us a hand to free the market' they will go up greatly in my estimation.
