> This does not refute in an way that MS quit the EEE game. Merely, you seem to troll me ("Cool story, bro.").

I'm trolling you because the claim that MS is trying to EEE HTML/JS/CSS by implementing hardware support for rendnering in IE is inane. Both Chrome and Firefox have the same capabilities, and I've seen more that one site (I actually use IE9 for specific reasons) that usually point me towards the usual bunch.

>Exactly, a few big fish and some smaller pure trolls. I am not aware of industrywide patent enforcement. There are thousands, if not tens of thousands of IT companies, who don't pursue software patents let alone enforce if they have.

So what in your mind makes Apple and Oracle different from Microsoft? If not, just concede the point: hating the players is pointless, the game is broken.

> If MS decides to sue they decide to sue. Your point here is? Sure, if I implemented C# according to the standard and my own set of libraries, the company could try to sue me. I am positive they wouldn't get very far. But continue on with your Stallman like conspiracy theories.
