I think probably a lot of for-profit companies don't believe in them, at least not for the purpose they were 'intended' for.
Microsoft included. Bill Gates might not be a technical genius but he certainly knows enough to realize that software patents are a sham. But he is primarily a businessman, and if you get the right set of patents, it is clearly very good for business!
