Injunction against Word

Given the recent ruling by a judge that prohibits further selling of
Word due to an alleged violation of an XML related patent, what would I
get in a new Office package?

You get a blank CD with lots of porn in it. The CD contains mug shot of
MVPs performing on each other and squirting on each other's face. The CD
requires a 25 digits - letters and numerals - and after installation, you
still need to activate it as MVPs are entitled to royalties of on their mug
shots.

Hi JP,

The injunction only affected the display of user-created Custom XML elements and has little effect on anything well over 99% of Word
users are (were) likely to ever encounter. Also, according to MS, the injunction applies only to copies of Microsoft Word 2007 and
Microsoft Office 2007 sold in the U.S. after January 10, 2010. In addition, Microsoft released a patch for Office 2007 (October
2009). That patch is required for the U.S. only.
