To be fair: 1. Because of its sheer size, Microsoft is the one of the largest targets of patent infringement suits, if not the largest.
2. I've heard of z4 Technologies as a company that built itself on dubious patents then suing alleged infringers. Still looking for my source. In any event, it's also in Microsoft's best interests to push for software patent reform. -- Daniel O.
