Your suggestion that Microsoft is engaging in predatory activities is interesting but not very convincing ... lots of software developers are after patents and have been for some time and a prime impetus to get them is to avoid being locked out by someone else getting there first. Microsoft didnt invent the patenting of osftware and we all undertsand that any such patents ultimately prove to the detriment of everyone ... Find some other reason to hate Microsoft if you must tilt at windmills ... you missed the mark here ... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert P. J.
