Google Linux servers hit with $5m patent infringement verdict (The Register)

And what really does any of this have to do with the subject matter? I could go on and spout whatever complaints I have about the Middle East, fiscal irresponsibility, black people, or whatever silly generalization I happen to think of at the moment, but those things pretty much have nothing to do with the matter at hand.

Couple that with the fact that (a) Google is Goliath in this case and (b) the amount awarded was relatively small, your so-called justification for spouting out a bunch of unrelated BS holds little water.

And "Don't mess with Texas" is an anti-littering campaign.
