That's nothing new for MS Mags, . . Netscape took Gates to the cleaners years ago for copying Netscapes browser styles.

It came to hundreds of millions but Gates just whipped out his wallet and paid them in short change.

MS are always playing the copycat - in consoles, they 'buy' platform exclusives, sometimes as much as $50 Million!!
