"It's not quite on the level of some of Microsoft's past patent showdowns, but a Texas federal jury found yesterday that the company should pay a still hefty $200 million in damages to Canadian software firm i4i Ltd for some supposed wrong doing. That company had alleged that Microsoft knowingly infringed on one of its patents in both Word and Vista, which apparently concerned \"manipulating a document's content and architecture separately.\" For its part, Microsoft unsurprisingly begs to differ, and says that \"the evidence clearly demonstrated that we do not infringe and that the i4i patent is invalid,\" adding that it will, of course, \"ask the court to overturn the verdict.\""^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
