Microsoft: Give us Software Patents or we Move 800 Jobs Out of Denmark
According to Danish newspaper reports, Bill Gates has been threatening
the Danish government to move jobs from Denmark to the United States
should Denmark continue to oppose the software patent directive. While
Danish Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen denies the reports,
statements from Navision and from party colleagues of Rasmussen
partially confirm it.
"If I'm to keep my development center in Denmark, then it's a
requirement that the question of rights becomes resolved. Otherwise, I
will move it to the USA where I can protect my rights" in a
conversation with Denmark's prime minister Fogh Rasmussen.

Rumor has it they are pulling out within next 2 years.
This information came to me from previous employee from there.
