[FAUST REPLIES]
It is difficult to comprehend that in your morality it is perfectly OK for a
large company to pursue a frivolous lawsuit with the intention of destroying
a smaller company (an illegal but possible act), but it is a mortal sin for
a smaller company to tell its customers that their product "works" within
some other product's rules structure (a completely legal act).
