Slashdot | Judge Clears the Way for Google's Microsoft Hire

Slashdot | Judge Clears the Way for Google's Microsoft Hire: "MarkEst1973 was one of the first to write to tell us MSNBC is reporting that a Judge has cleared the way for Google to hire former Microsoft employee Kai-Fu Lee. The hire does come with several limitations and Lee was also found to have 'misled his former employer and taken advantage of confidential Microsoft information'. This comes as a follow up to the original story in which Microsoft sued Google in order to prevent the hire. Tom Burt was quoted as saying that 'Dr. Lee is going to be the highest-paid HR manager ever.'"

Ok, if you haven't heard of this...
Microsoft is all pissed because several of their employees are leaving and going to Google. I don't think they are pissed because they think that these employees are going to help Google with the rumored operating system project, I think they are pissed because if the PR of the whole thing. They look bad...but you know, if they wouldn't make such a big fuss over it then you would just see a couple of news posts saying "so n so" left Microsoft for Google and that would be it. Now it is a swamp of media news posts. Oh, Microsoft...when will u learn?
