It may sound like an all-or-nothing situation, but that’s not how our relationships work at Microsoft
Microsoft discounted everyone but themselves with their initial action, and they've compounded things pretty quickly with these subpoenas ... This is also going to cause collateral damage for a lot of trust groups, while all that they've accomplished is little more than a very miniscule inconvenience to...

I don't see Microsoft owning Nokia, but it would definitely provide financing to the tune of a couple of billion dollars
