Microsoft Wins Summary Judgement in Smart Tag Case

dan2bit writes "Business Week reports that a judge in Wisconsin handed down a summary judgement today in favor of Microsoft, defending itself from a patent infringement suit brought by small fish Hyperphrase over the embedding of 'Smart Tags' in Microsoft Office. The suit also produced some amusing minutiae."

Read the damned fucking article. God, does your deep-seated hatred of Microsoft come naturally or does it come from reading slashdot all day?

To be fair, the court said that in the future, it would forgive Hyperphrase of filing past deadline, up to a maximum of four minutes and THIRTY seconds, which is several seconds more than the court allowed MIcrosoft.

But then, it's a joke, see? It's funny! Ha ha ha!

All your base are still not funny.

I notice slashdotters are exercising their usual incisive wit in the comments section of the Corp Law Blog.

Keep it up, guys. If the slashdot moderators don't find you funny, I'm sure the corporate lawyers will.
