How Many Lawsuits Will Windows 8 Provoke?

In the last week we’ve had a few juicy leaks about forthcoming Windows 8 features such as the inclusion of the Ribbon interface into Explorer.

Why do I say this? The other day I wrote here about the apparent inclusion of Microsoft’s SkyDrive and Live Mesh cloud backup and sync technologies into Windows 8.
