MS claims Tablet dictionary is IP

Let's say I was a small business and I had a semi-struggling product that should be huge. Let's say I wanted to piss off as many developers who were helping promote the use and usefulness of that product. How would I go about that? Well, as always, I would look to MS for guidance.

Casey does more cool coding than almost any blogger I've seen. Lately, he's been playing with the Tablet PC, doing some very cool things and basically acting as free advertisement and education on the subject. That obviously has to stop, so MS made him yank an article because it listed the words in the MS dictionary. There is no excuse, no justification, and no good reason for something that stupid. Where I say "stupid", others would claim "evil". I'm tired of having to defend MS and in this case, I can't.

[UPDATE] Casey apparently got an acceptable explanation for the debacle.
