This one made me smile:
----------------------------------------
Taken from Cnet.com

Microsoft to Lindows: "Look. You sell a version of Linux with an
interface that looks and feels like Windows. You're infringing on
our trademark. You have to change your name." Lindows: "Can
anyone
truly own the air, the trees, the word windows? We cannot change our
name. We will not." Microsoft: "Here's $20 million. Change
it."
Lindows: "Say hello to Linspire, Inc.!"
-----------------------------------------
Anyone got any ideas on how to get money from MS??
