Supreme Court Sides With Rambus Over FTC

afabbro writes "The US Supreme Court rejected the FTC's bid to impose anti-trust penalties on Rambus. Without comment, they let stand an appeals court decision favoring Rambus. The FTC had found that Rambus undermined competition by getting secretly patented technology included in industry standards, but the Supremes evidently didn't agree."

    Rumbling for years... Yes but before they usually state it a a major Memory Manufacure used by HP SUN .... I am sorry some people don't always keep up with slashdot and some stories just don't stick out.

    If something is so important that you feel the need to post it on the internet... It probably isn't that important.

    troll, for saying that the the people in the USSC who made that decision lack higher brain function?

    Rambus sycophants shouldn't be granted mod points.

    Well known company to whom? Computer geeks, but you forget there are all different kinds of geeks on slashdot. Space Geeks, Biology Geeks, Chemistry Geeks, Genetic Geeks just to name a few and as I browse the front page of this site it appears there are stories that suit all those interest.. You act like everyone should be aware of a computer hardware manufacturer, so I hope you hold yourself to the same standard and are aware of all the big names in all the other fields covered by slashdot news. If not, you are a whiny hypocrite.

    I read Slashdot for the headlines, because the headlines, unlike the articles, are usually original and never duplicated
