Microsoft stealing intellectual property?

It looks like a college in the Philippines is suing Microsoft claiming that they have stolen intellectual property. Wow, Microsoft, the bastion in the fight against piracy is guilty of being a pirate themselves? Tell me it ain’t so. I’ve got no love lost with Microsoft but it’s pretty apparent that they may be guilty looking at the evidence.

It turns out they are being sued by Southeastern College for 100 million pesos. They are being sued because they are accused of taking a book written by Southeastern College and putting their own name on the CD version of it. Ouch. Not good.
