The alleged infringement covers HP processors manufactured from 1995 to the present. How common is it for big universities to get involved in lawsuits like this?"

    Ithaca is a town of about 40,000, down to about 15,000 when school is out like now. Give us a break, we're ghetto, ok? Besides, I find the site-specific search engines suck (and are more trouble than they are worth to implement). Just use google and restrict the domain (click on the "advanced" tab... does it piss anyone else off that "stuff that will screw you up if you are intent on messing with things that you don't understand" is always called "advanced," at least in the windows (and now the web) world?)
