Microsoft Sues Google over hiring.

I guess the lads over at Google have never heard of a non-compete!

It is one thing to hire a scrub, but to hire an R&D exec for a similar position, hey!

IANAL, but methinks this will not end well. For GOOG.

(On his blog, Microsoft Monitor, Joe Wilcox hopes Google did a search of Dr. Lee's contract with Microsoft for noncompete, a very appropriate question.)
