> I don't believe this for a second. Apple has a specific problem with Android because android has >50% market share.

Apple has been targeting them since before Android was popular. The Android project caused a huge rift between Apple and Google, this is well documented. Marketshare has nothing to do with it.

> You have to be joking if you believe that Apple wouldn't consider the same actions against Microsoft if they had similar market share.

I'm not joking. They would have little or no case as Microsoft actually paid attention to patents when developing WP7. Google didn't.

You also have no evidence of this, other than the fact that you don't like Apple. I have lots of evidence that marketshare was irrelevant to Steve Jobs Android hate, for instance it's documented in his bio.

> Microsoft has a lot more lawfare equipment.

I have no idea what this statement is supposed to mean.

> Microsoft has < 1% market share.

Really? That's the only difference?

How about the fact that WP7 is substantially different and original when compared to iOS and Android and they would have no case? No? That's not a difference? Ok...
