Here is a very well written article describing why Microsoft won't attack non-Novell Linux. http://blogs.zdnet.com/carroll/index.php?p=1617 From the article: "A Microsoft that goes after Linux on the basis of patents opens itself to countersuits by companies with an interest in Linux and patents which can be used against Microsoft.
