M$ deserves to win the FAT patent. After all that's the only piece of code ever invented by Mr. $ Gates.

What next? Xerox will get patent for X-windows?

But what are the implication of this on Linux? Will it mean, Linux with FAT support has to pay fee to M$ ?

Hello,
It seems M$ has won the fat patent issue. Some of the freedos people still want to keep it their primary fs. Fat is no good as a filesystem or otherwise. The project is going to release its version 1.0 anytime now. (I have their latest beta).
