    From Forbes: "Ravicher, who performed the patent analysis that turned up Linux's 283 possible patent violations, claims on his Web site that he has "extensive experience litigating, licensing, prosecuting and otherwise counseling clients with respect to patents." In fact, he has three years of experience as an associate at two law firms in New York and has never acted as lead counsel on any patent litigation.

    Ravicher's online bio also claims that he "practiced law" at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, one of the country's most prestigious law firms. Actually, he spent eight weeks at Skadden as a summer intern while he was still attending law school."

    "There are always going to be dissenters," said Cincinnati lawyer Stanley Chesley, who co-chairs the committee that manages the plaintiffs' cases. "Any individual who doesn't like this can opt out."

    He added: "One of the sensitive issues was, do you further Microsoft's monopoly by giving away all these products? It's not like breast implants or tobacco where the products themselves are dangerous."
