Linux vs Patents, round one

From Groklaw, IP Innovation LLC has just filed a patent infringement claim against Red Hat and Novell... And over what? Multiple desktops. Let's see Microsoft win this one.
"And now let's play, where's Microsoft? You know, like where's Waldo? Betcha he's in the tree's leaves somewhere if we look close enough. We had our first hint when Steve Ballmer said in his speech the other day that he figured other folks besides Microsoft would want Red Hat and FOSS to pay them for their patents. Remember? Is he a prophet or merely well informed? Or is there more to this? When I lay out all the research, you can decide."
