Intergraph Injunction Against Intel Suspended For Now

Posted by timothy on from the talking-real-money dept.

Kilbasar writes "News.com is reporting that the Itanic has hit another iceberg, with a District Court granting an injunction stopping Intel from making the chip. However, the injunction was immediately suspended to allow for another round of appeals, and I don't really see anything coming of this other than Intel paying Intergraph anywhere from $100M to $250M to use their patents."

    Don't forget their stock holders :)

    I bought some AMD at 8.50$ this summer and felt pretty bad when it fell to 3.50$... I should have waited until then to buy. It's now back at 6.14$.

    If they Intel loose this appeal AMD stocks will probably go higher, hopefully over what I paid for it.

    This is good news :)

    "Second, it's LOSE! LOSE LOSE LOSE!

    Loose = the dog is running away!
    Lose = I did not win this trial."

    I wonder if we should start some kind of crisis intervention group for people like us, so that we don't pop a vessel in our head when somebody misspells "lose" as "loose"
