Microsoft Strikes Linux Patent Deal with LG Electronics

In its second such agreement this week, Microsoft has struck a deal under which it will extend amnesty to a company that’s using what the software maker claims is patented Microsoft intellectual property embedded in the open source Linux computer operating system. Under a deal with LG Electronics, disclosed late Wednesday, Microsoft will forgo any Linux-related patent claims against the South Korean electronics manufacturer. In return, Microsoft will gain access to certain intellectual property produced by LG.
