A few days ago Microsoft was granted a patent[1] on the functionality of 
page up and page down. Today was the first time I've heard of this and 
it seems that it's staying under the radar of most news sites. However 
this is very real, unless I, and others are mistaken. I know Fedora has 
an anti-patent stance on software included into itself, so what does 
this mean?

Having Fun,
Michael
