Actaully, as a risk-adverse Enterprise IT guy who typically implements solutions for large corporations who contain a lot of risk-adverse lawyer types, my concern is not that microsoft may choose to sue Linux vendor X, because there is always Linux vendor Y we could switch to without too much trouble, but rather my concern is that microsoft may choose to sue the company I just convinced to implement an important IT solution on linux, and the concern of the laywers who are worried about microsoft coming in at a later time and sueing them (for IP liscencing of things in linux, potentially introduced their by Novell which microsoft is claiming my company does not have a liscence for), and for me, the real concern is having to deal with said lawyers telling me that they aren't comfortable using linux because of such conerns, or telling me that "only Suse is legal to use", becasue they intrepret (and accept) Miscrosofts statements at face value.
