M$ ripping off freeware...WTF!

I will let the article from BlueJ stand on it's own in describing the total rip off that Microsoft is doing to this not for profit organization and their software. It really sickens me that M$ would rip of an organization that has done so much in the area of education. To blatantly steal from them is one thing...to use the exact description of their software for a patent application...well that is just screwed up. Read on my friends...and spread the word!

- Michael's Random Thoughts / "Microsoft patents BlueJ"

::UPDATE::

- CNET has an article, "Microsoft backpedals on programming patent", that reports M$ is backing off on this patent deal...rightly so!
