My favorite part: 'they are basically saying, if you stop obeying us, we will stop you from viewing the documents you and your friends created. Who are they to say where and when I read my documents? Now I need a monopolist's permission to view my own creations? The audacity is mind-boggling, and that the Justice Department is permitting it is simply astounding.' - Wow"

"The point is: someone allowed Microsoft to patent a key and license it, and now they're trying to figure out ways around this."

I would recommend Notepad, personally.
