Just read an article on SurfCast suing MS over the "tiles" interface, Surfcast claims they invented it in 2000 and got the patent in 2004. Reading the patent they nailed it and MS totally stole it.

What I don't understand is it is so clearly the same thing how MS was granted a patent on their UI?

MS is going to be paying up...
