MS is an very important tax payer and fund source for many people to get fed in America. Banning sales would put a dent in our economy so I say the judge made a good call. That's capitalism for ya.

Banning sales only is beneficial where the party potentially in violation would be unable to pay.  Regardless of the outcome, Microsoft would be able to pay any back royalties.

As long as they pay up, I don't see the issue, that's what patents are, you pay a certain % for using them per device or copy and that's it.
