I want Microsoft to play by the rules and, because of Microsoft's Windows monopoly, those rules should be stricter than those applied to other software companies. But I don't want Microsoft forced to stop adding new features to Windows simply to satisfy disgruntled competitors who would rather litigate than innovate.

Nothing will ever make sense in this technological age until the current Patent system is completely overhauled.
The current system is destroying innovation and stiffling competetion.
The continuing awards of overly-broad patents by a patent office that wouldn't understand technology if it bit them in the ass needs to stop.
