Surprisingly, IEEE's recent patent portfolio survey ranked Microsoft as No. 1 in terms of the overall quality, and more importantly, scientific value of its patent portfolio. (See the first chart attached below.) But the ranking is not solely about the number of patents (IBM leads that list, as the The Patent Board Survey shows - see the second chart.)

From a quantitative perspective, Microsoft had 94 percent growth in the number of IT patents filed, versus only 30 percent growth for IBM and 16 percent growth from third-ranked Hewlett-Packard."

Tell me anything of Microsoft that is NOT Bought out or copied!
Former Sun Microsystems chief executive Scott McNealy
"Microsoft never produced technology except by buying it, Name one thing they've ever invented on their own? Seriously, name one! If you think of any, send me an e-mail, and I'll research it to find out who they bought it from.... R&D [research and development] and M&A [mergers and acquisitions] are the same thing over there."
