Lik-Sang To Take On The Big 3?
kableh writes "According to a press release on Lik-Sang's website, the gaming accessory company has new management, and is prepared to mount a strong defense in their upcoming lawsuit against Microsoft, Nintendo, and Sony. "Just a few days after having received High Court Orders not allowing us to sell Mod Chip products for the Playstation 2 and Flash Linker products for the Nintendo Gameboy Advance, Lik Sang realized that the powers of those three multi-billion dollar corporations are simply infinite compared to the budgets and resources businesses like Lik Sang have available. Their legal actions have been hurting our customers and our business a lot in the last couple of weeks, so that we have finally decided to let somebody else take over Lik-Sang.com and solely concentrate on the lawsuit", says Alex Kampl, Director of Lik Sang International Limited."
if they continue to make and distribute the mod chips without implying that they be used to modify a proprietary system, on what grounds can they be sued?
...then tell the big three were to stick it...
Put a big disclaimer on the side that says:
DO NOT USE THIS CHIP IN PLACE OF U19 IN THE SONY PLAYSTATION 2 MAIN BOARD VER. 1.3, DOING SO WILL VOID THE WARRANTY AND MAY BE A VIOLATION OF APPLICABLE LAW
Karma: Censored (mostly affected by decency laws)
American ingenuity did not create the Playstation 2 or the Gamecube...
And what happened to making an honest living? Is charging $200 for an American operating system honest?

Librarian: May I help you, young man?
Frustrated kid on computer: I want to get to Lik-Sang, but I can't.
Librarian: Why, you rude young man - leave at once!
Yes, Nintendo is a fine example of an American company. Red blooded Americans like Shigeru Miyamoto and Hiroshi Yamauchi have created many quality, American games from their headquarters in Tokyo, USA.

There are a huge number of yeast infections in this county. Probably because we're downriver from the bread factory.
