Rambus Patent Claims Dismissed

Gogo Dodo writes "The patent infringement claim by Rambus, the SCO of the chip world, against Infineon have been dismissed by a judge in Virginia due to Rambus destroying documents relating to the lawsuit." Of course, Rambus is already planning an appeal, so this may not be over just yet.

Rambus faces a patent infringement suite from SCO for using their business model and becoming the "SCO(tm) of the chip world"

I'm sure we all are. Since this is Slashdot however I find no need to back up my wild claims with solid facts.

I'm sure that's on their list right under "stop posting dupes"

Priceless?

512MB R-DRAM RIMM - $120
Legal fees to enforce your patent - $350000
Being left out in the cold and compared to SCO - Priceless.

Man, I really hope they win the appeal. I'd hate to see them lose their ability to innovate.

Damn

I'd be scared if I was the judge...Oh wait sorry Rambus not Rambo's. Silly me.

Ahh, the Unix philosophy: it's the users' fault.

Is the story duplicated? It's the users' fault.

Can't edit a story to correct a typo? It's the users' fault.

Can't understand arcane command syntax? It's the users' fault.
