Microsoft prohibited from selling Microsoft Word
The U.S. Court of Appeals just sent judgment down on Microsoft prohibiting them from selling Microsoft Word starting January 11, 2010. Microsoft is planning to release a new version of Word that will pull the offending code that started this patent infringement lawsuit.
The good news: Microsoft will still be able to provide support (patching) to the product.
If Microsoft was not able to support the offending version of Word, many people would have vulnerable products for future patches that affect Word.
