: A U.S. judge issued a permanent injunction preventing Microsoft Corp.
: (MSFT-Q23.640.512.20%) from selling its flagship "Word" software in
: the United States, agreeing with a jury verdict that the company
: willfully violated a patent held by a small Toronto firm.
:
: Patent infringements happen all the time. What caught my eye was that
: the federal court judge found MS had "...*willfully* violated a
: patent..." It isn't often that the "old" MS gets caught out like
: that.
