I'd like to see a citation of Microsoft saying their patents were going to be used only defensively.
I think it's _completely_ in their nature to block and bleed competitors.

IMO, the real question is what took them so long, since the first threats were made years ago. With that said MS has never threatened anything beyond Linux, at least that I can recall. Linux appears to have a special place in their heart.
