  It was a bit more complex than that, but I can't find the billion number. http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702303916904577375502392129654 http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB1000142405270230391690... In any case, they settled for a negative value a lawsuit alleging B&N violated Microsoft patents. If that doesn't send a message about what those patents are, I can't imagine what would.
