However, filing another lawsuit on WordPerfect before the ink is dry on this settlement. It's obviously queuing up for seconds at the feeding trough. It's just plain piggish.

So what do you think they should do? Accept the token payment for the part of the legal issues - the whole of which they've been trying to settle out of court, it says in the article - that MS was willing to settle for and piss off the rest of it? That you think it piggish for Novell to stand up to MS for the latter's anticompetitive actions says more about you than about Novell, I have to think. What's next - blaming WordPerfect for being such a juicy target for Microsoft's dirty tricks?

Pfui.
