"If you'll recall, it was around this time last year when ole Steve Ballmer fessed up and stated that Linux users probably owed him a nickle or two, and apparently, he's yet to get over it. Reportedly, Mr. Ballmer was speaking out last week \"at a company event in London discussing online services in the UK\" when he proclaimed that \"people who use Red Hat, at least with respect to our intellectual property, in a sense have an obligation to compensate us.\" Furthermore, he went on to \"praise Novell for valuing intellectual property, and suggested that open source vendors will be forced to strike similar deals with other patent holders.\" Of course, we're sure he means well and all, given that all he \"really\" wants is \"an intellectual property interoperability framework between the two worlds.\" And a few dollars too, right?[Via TheInquirer]"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
