That was funny, I went on to watch the music one afterwards.
I know you are interested in software patents, have you seen this story? http://mashable.com/2009/08/12/word-patent/
Personally I still don’t understand how software is invented over being written… but there you go.

It’s bonkers. But, this ruling could be a positive thing, because maybe it will lead MS to start helping eradicate software patents, which are just a giant drain on creativity, rather than just building up their own arsenal. Proliferation didn’t work in the Cold War, and it won’t work here either. Some of the big companies need to man up and admit that instead of sitting on their hands hoping someone else blows up first.
But, in practice they’ll probably just reach some kind of wimpy settlement that delays the inevitable for a while longer.
