Microsoft Sues and Gets Sued

wubo writes, "Microsoft is apparently stepping up its anti-piracy measures by publishing the locations and specifics of their pending lawsuits. Check out the snazzy map — warms me heart and soul." And to even the scales of justice, one of the last remaining class-action antitrust lawsuits filed against Microsoft in a state court is set to go to trial in Iowa later this year. An anonymous reader writes, "Iowa consumers who purchased Microsoft products in the last 12 years are being represented in a class action anti-trust lawsuit against Microsoft. The jury trial begins on November 13 and is expected to last 6 months." Bill Gates is on the witness list.

    I have some very bad news to tell you. So sit down for a moment and ignore the SWAT-team for a moment that's breaking down your door and open a window to let the tear gas out.
    You see, AOL made a little oops. I know, those hand cuffs are a bid uncomfortable. They accidently released a few search logs. Hmm, these police car seats are pretty comfortable. So some people might have gotten some information on what you were looking for on the internet. You're supposed to push you thump in the inkt and then on the paper. But I'm sure this isn't going to affect your life negatively at all. Hmm, that cellmate seems to have a liking for you. So I suppose you don't hold this little slip-up against us and aren't going to give up your subscription, are you?
