Here is what they say:
There's also a breakdown of the alleged violations given:

* Linux kernel - 42 violations
* Linux graphical user interfaces - 65 violations
* Open Office - 45 violations
* Email apps - 15 violations
* Misc - 68 violations

So I guess I can claim to own all the cars that I do not make.
I claim all the stuff at garage sales, pay me my commission.
I own all the stuff at the dump, I'll send you a user bill.


If Microsoft can do it, so can I.

Could you tell us your source?
I've heard none of this (but don't doubt it).
