A German court has ruled today that Microsoft has infringed on a number of Motorola Mobility patents.
The ruling also demands Microsoft remove their Xbox 360 console and Windows 7 OS from the entire German market.
Despite the ruling, the Redmond giant has been granted a preliminary injunction in the U.S. that will prevent Motorola from enforcing any court orders from other nations. ... [ read the full article ]

you can support Ubuntu by buying their copies the OS or merch if you like them so much. its like 5 euros for a pack of 5 cds.
Pull out? Doesn't sound manly to me... I say leave it in there till we get the job done. George Carlin.
The Chihuahua gets one lucky shot on the nuts of a Great Dane & now they think they rule the world. I'm not saying that Motorola doesn't have their due, but delusions have most certainly set in. You'd think they had just taken the main thrown at Jonestown, Guyana. Kinda quaffed down a bit of that Cool-Aid...
The greed withdrawal of all these corporations in this economy has developed a kind of starvation style of madness, don't you think? Seems to me if these idiots had laid off all the lawsuits & the money thrown down the shitter (kinda like lottery tickets) that all that cost, just waited out the financial crisis instead of trying to lace their jackets with the virgin pelts of even more fleeced customers & slacks made from the leathered asses of war torn corporate thieves, they might have been just fine.
Personally... Let 'em have Germany. Motorola will completely fold & M$ will come in & literally buy up all that they once were. They'll be a gigantic f*king joke. Like Germany won't go out of the country to get their software/products from another source.
Since all of the companies involved in these patent wars produce both software and hardware, it seems clear where all of this is headed. Some absolutely kick-ass corporate robot armies, settling these disputes!!!!
