Even so, the position that "Microsoft are pure evil and are patent geniuses" is misguided. Their history also implies the contrary. Take a look at http://en.opensuse.org/FAQ:Novell-MS#Microsoft_are_Patent_geniuses_and_can_never_be_trusted

For Novell specifically so far the deal has been incredibly good: more money to invest, more SLE coupons sold, more Linux engineers employed.

In my eyes the one and only goal of Microsoft is to make more money. And yes, I think that they are patent geniuses. In Novell I see some kind of idealism. I do not trust Microsoft, but I am willing to learn because things can change.
